Tom hulce (amadeus)
He was so good
He deserved more recognition
I love that Tom Hulce is at the top of the comments. What a goddamn performance.
I vehemently believe had he been in supporting actor he would have won.
Oh I agree he should have won or they at least should have shared it. Murray as much as said that in his speech.
1,000% agree!
Toni Collette for The Sixth Sense could also be here. It’s WILD to me that’s her only nomination, especially since she’s given just as good if not better performances in other films. Movies like Little Miss Sunshine and ESPECIALLY Hereditary (which, I know Best Actress was a tough race that year, but her not even getting nominated… hey Academy, your anti-horror bias is showing…) show what she’s REALLY capable of.
100% should have made this list - much more so than Bill Murray
I would've removed Melissa Mccartney from That race tbh
I have a feeling she still has a few possible nominations in her future.
She’s got some time I think. She works a lot still it seems and has become pretty beloved since 1999
I completely forgot that she's only been nominated for one. It pisses me off LOL
Another good one: Elisabeth Shue in Leaving Las Vegas
She was excellent in that film
100%. I still can’t decide between her, Stone, and Sarandon for that year. What an all-timer line-up, and Kidman and Bonnaire aren’t even there!
She plays perfectly off of Cage
I came to mention her. Thank you!
Shoulda been nominated for Adventures in Babysitting
Imelda Stanunton - Vera Drake
Rosamund pike - Gone Girl
Jaye Davidson - The crying Game
Tom Hardy - The Revenant
Fernanda Montenegro - Central Station
Cut off point was 2004
It’s sad that Donald Sutherland was never nominated. And Toni Collette not getting her second nod for Hereditary
@@lansesteiner3563 YES! Collette's snub stung because she gave a stunning performance!
Fernanda Montenegro in "Central Station"! After 20 years my soul is still shaking.
Same. I’m still not over her loss that year.
Been looking for this comment! And I agree 💯
She’ll be in the conversation again this season with “Vitoria” and “I’m Still Here”
Both Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes should have won for Schindler's List.
Good list. I might have included William H. Macy for Fargo, Stockard Channing for Six Degrees of Separation, and especially Dennis Hopper for Hoosiers.
Judith Anderson enhances every movie in which she appears ( Rebecca, Laura, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof). She and Vincent Price play off each other so well in Laura.
I wish Florence Bates as Mrs. Van Hopper had also been nominated. She's every bit as good as Anderson.
@@topogigio2879 Agreed, she kills it. Every part in Rebecca is cast to perfection.
Agreed, she's great again in The Strange Love of Martha Ivers.
Then, she ended her illustrious career with a role in a daytime drama. In interviews at the time, she was very upbeat and positive about it. I felt it was a step down, but she made it work for her!
Not quite. She was also around the same time giving a tony-nominated performance as the nurse in Medea opposite Zoe Caldwell (who won the tony in the role Anderson had triumphed on Broadway 30 years previously.)

2. Linda Blair (The Exorcist)
3. Laurence Fishburne (What's Love Got To Do With It)

Danny Aiello - Do the Right Thing
Karen Black - Five Easy Pieces

Rosie Perez - Fearless
Lorraine Bracco-Goodfellas
great list!
Great selection! I would also add:
Uma Thurman - Pulp Fiction
River Phoenix - Running on Empty
Gene Tierney - Leave Her To Heaven
Juliette Lewis - Cape Fear
Toni Collette - Sixth Sense
Bob Hoskins - Mona Lisa
Kathleen Turner - Peggy Sue Got Married
Lauren Bacall - The Mirror Has Two Faces
Salma Hayek - Frida
Diane Lane - Unfaithful
@@xrh_tm55 It's hard to believe that "Leave Her To Heaven" is Gene Tierney's only Oscar Nomination!
Samuel is getting probably one more nomin. This year
If “The Piano Lesson” is what I think it’s gonna be. I’m expecting him and Danielle to be big contenders for the Oscar this year.
Yep. It’s totally early to say he’s a lock of course but, barring something else truly monumental, I think he’d have to the clear favorite given both the film and the “career award” angles.
And I hope he wins. 🙏🏻
Honorable mention: Jaye Davidson (Best Supporting Actor) in The Crying Game.
@@jonathanvelazquezph.d.2719 absolutely such a unique character and wonderful performance
May have never worked again.
I can't think of anyone I know who saw The Crying Game in the theater and ever bothered to watch it again. Kinda like The English Patient.
Paul Winfield in ‘Sounder’. In the same vein as Laurence Fishburne, that could have been over shadowed by a performance. Cicely Tyson, gave one of the best performances on the silver screen in movie history! Winfield could have easily been overlooked by the Academy and felt that a Best Picture, Writing and Actress nomination was enough, but to have Winfield recognized here as Lead Actor, was a watershed moment in an already outstanding film year that saw ‘The Godfather’ and ‘Cabaret’ 1972 was a great year for cinema, and to think Winfield only got the 1 nomination in his career is baffling. He did get recognition from the Emmys, in ‘King’, ‘Roots’ and a win for ‘Picket Fences’, but he should have been nominated for ‘A Hero Ain't Nothin' But a Sandwich’.
Fernanda Montenegro!
my faourite to win that year - good that you mention it. A wonderful heartfelt performance - I cried my eyes out on that scene near the end, on the bus.
Oh, God. Yes. That’s why I came here. I’m still not over Gwyneth Paltrow winning that year. Fernanda Montenegro should’ve been the winner with Cate Blanchett a close second.
@fridaclaxton Anyone else but Paltrow would have been better. My least favourite Oscars of all time. Begnini won too, Dench, a legend, but not for that...Shakespeare in Love winning best Picture...Weinstein at the apex of his vile power. No bloody thank you...the whole lot stank
I recently watched "Central Station" and was amazed by Montenegro's performance! She makes us feel for an essentially unlikable character.
It doesn’t fit the pre-2004 criteria, but Gabourey Sidibe is fantastic in “Precious.” Such a nuanced, devastating performance that’s stuck with me since I watched it in theaters. It’s an all-timer nomination.
You're right. I can't see her getting anything that would get her another nom.
@@jeremyudI could see her getting a nom for supporting actress in a comedy role since she’s very funny. I hope to see her in the awards conversation again since she’s undeniably talented.
Bob Hoskins, Mona Lisa, a great performance in a criminally underrated film.
Mary Tyler Moore should be on the list for Ordinary People.
agreed
@@jespertan4645 YES! A miraculous performance!
My favorite supporting performance by any actor, male or female, is Toni Collette in "The Sixth Sense". Her final scene with Haley Joel Osment wrecked me the first time I watched the movie, and reliably wrecks me every subsequent time I re-watch it. Perhaps you believe that she'll probably get another nomination in the future, but I wish that she'd have at least made your honorable mentions.
Toni should have won.
@@kellie-nd1yp I would have preferred that.
@@CineRam always make me tear up
What about ken watanabe for the last samurai. He is one of my favourite
He was wonderful in that movie, I fell in love with his character and performance.
Really good point
Judith Anderson is one of the most captivating performances in any Hitchcock movie
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@raymondmedel1879 It is said that Anderson's character was queer coded. I say it outright! Danvers was literally drooling over the first Mrs. DeWinter's underwear/lingerie.
What a fun list! Are you going to do a list of performances where the win was the only nomination?
Lesley Ann Warren and Robert Preston for Victor/Victoria
Preston should have already had a nomination for The Music Man.
Also Stockard Channing for Six Degrees of Separation
I would include Gary Busey in the Buddy Holly Story also. Burt Reynolds in Boogie Nights, Topol in Fiddler on the Roof, Bob Hoskins in Mona Lisa, Mary Tyler Moore in Ordinary People, Omar Sharif in Lawrence of Arabia, Jack Wild in Oliver, Justin Henry in Kramer vs Kramer, Oprah Winfrey in the Color Purple, Melanie Griffith in Working Girl, Pat Morita in The Karate Kid, William Hickey in Prizzi's Honor, Tom Berenger in Platoon, Albert Brooks in Broadcast News, Chloe Sevigny in Boys Don't Cry and Gerard Depardieu in Cyrano de Bergerac.
Cyrano de Bergerac is the name of Depardieu's film.
Omigosh yes. I would definitely sub Burt Reynolds for Samuel L. Jackson on this list.
@@jennywhite5531 I have the both of them on my list.
@BFA100 I would argue people who are still actively making quality films and can have a 2nd nom shouldn't be on the list
@@pureb7235 Gary Busey yes! One of my favorite music biopics, he was so good.
I don't know if you realise, but Jackson won the BAFTA for Pulp Fiction. A really great win.
The fact that Bill Murray only has a nomination for Lost In Translation and not for Rushmore, is astonishing to me
@@archimmes life aquatic as well.
Honestly he deserved a nom for Groundhog Day too. One of the best comedy performances of the last 50 years.
But "Lost in Translation" is still his finest work in my opinion.
Totally agree. Bill Murray deservedly got a best supporting Golden Globe nomination for Rushmore, but was snubbed for the Oscars. I LOVED his performance in that movie!
Stone should’ve been nominated for supporting actress. Her character isn’t a lead, and she would’ve won over Mira Sorvino (never understood this win, btw)
Also, Kathy Bates could've been nominated for Dolores Claiborne if Sharon Stone had gone supporting.
@@vitormcz Whatever you think of Mighty Aphrodite, Mira stole every scene she had in that movie and deserved her win. Sure it was a Woody Allen movie that helped her win plus she was a nepo baby, but she was a nepo baby who was actually good and talented. Considering what happened in her career later cause of Weinstein, I'm glad she got an Oscar.
@vitormcz Good point! Stone would have easily won in Supporting. It's like last year, Michelle Williams would have an Oscar if she'd gone into Supporting for "The Fabelmans."
@kirkreid743 I'm not sure how close Bates was to a nomination considering how "Delores Claiborne" was roundly snubbed! The entire cast should have been nominated. As well as picture, adapted screenplay, director, and cinematography.
These are GREAT choices, especially Jackson, Dandridge, Stone, and Anderson. And I LOVE that you gave Welles a shout out for his incredible performance, which people often overlook because they’re so dazzled by his stellar direction.
Kristin Scott Thomas! I’m still waiting for her second.
She was great in life is a house.
She should've been nominated for Four Weddings and a Funeral.
Another strong option, although this person could get in for more stuff in the future: Colin Farrell for Best Actor in Banshees of Inisherin. That man has proven himself to be such a talent in the last few years. I mean yea, he's been in tons of big budget stuff where he doesn't get to really "act" all that much. But when he's given a script where he can go all in, he takes it and RUNS with it. Other films that would've been worthy nominations: both Yorgos Lanthimos films he was in (The Lobster and The Killing Of A Sacred Deer), and both other Martin McDonagh films he was in (In Bruges, which I think he won a Golden Globe for, and Seven Psychopaths). In fact, if Brendan Fraser (who gave a revolutionary performance in The Whale that year, plus had one of the biggest comeback stories of the Oscar season) hadn't been there, I think Farrell could've won it. But we could see him back again, who knows.
His one nomination was recent so he's ineligible for Brian's list but you make good points. I think Farrell deserved a nomination for In Bruges and deserved to win for Banshees.
@@davedavis8786 as I said, he could’ve won for Banshees if Brendan Fraser wasn’t there. Brendan’s performance in The Whale was just next level, by FAR the best performance he’s ever given (and he’s been really good in other things too), maybe will ever give. So if there was any time to give him an Oscar, it was then. Colin could give a similarly-good performance and be back. I’m not sure how often Brendan will be in these type movies or give nomination-worthy performances.
If he keeps working with Lanthimos he could get another one
I saw Samuel L. Jackson in The Piano Lesson when it was playing on Broadway a couple years ago. It's tricky to adapt a play into a movie without making look too much like a play, but if they pull it off, he could nab that second nomination. I enjoyed his performance on stage.
Dorthy Dandrige would of had more nominations and possibly a win if she didn’t pass away so soon
Patty McCormack- The Bad Seed (1956)
Rosie Perez- Fearless (1993)
Kathleen Turner- Peggy Sue Got Married (1986)
@@albalbuena6478 Absolutely love the noms for Rosie Perez and Kathleen Turner. Not many people talk about those movies.
@@navidhudson7065 Fearless is one of my favorite movies.
Kathleen Turner only got 1 nomination? That's crazy
@@mainsmain She should have won.
Carol Channing should be on the list for Thoroughly Modern Millie, Gene Kelly for Anchors Aweigh, Teri Garr for Tootsie, Peggy Lee for Pete Kelly's Blues, Sally Kirkland for Anna, Alec Baldwin for The Cooler, Burt Reynolds for Boogie Nights, Gloria Stuart for Titanic, Juliette Lewis for Cape Fear, Queen Latifah for Chicago, Oprah Winfrey for The Color Purple should be on the list as well.
Have you considered doing a ranking of John Williams 54 Oscar nominations? It would be a cool way to inadvertently rank his film scores!
0h my goodness-yes-but, when I think about it, how would you rank them? They were all such a huge part of the films they were in. Maybe Jaws would be in the top 5 or so, for being such an iconic representation of the shark, the opening theme
That would take ages
Bill Murray should have won for
Lost in Translation. I don't understand why he lost. He was great.
Because, unfortunately, Sean Penn yell-crying and hamming it up for two and a half hours is what they love.
Until he calls out the country for homophobia during his second win. The Oscars dumped him after that '08 win. @@bfunderb5899
I wish Sharon would have went supporting and if she did I believe she would have been an Oscar winner
They actually gave her the option to do that and she pushed for going lead and said it was a lead role and she would rather lose in lead than win in supporting for category fraud.
Also, this happened with Bette Davis as well in All About Eve.
Judith was haunting as she was in love with Rebecca and to see her go up in flames. She is what you remember most about that movie. I also think that should have been Hitchcock's directing Oscar.
Joan Fontaine gives one of the best actress performances ever. She's what I remember most.
Kate Hudson - Almost Famous
Insane that Harrison Ford only has one nom and never won. Tommy Lee Jones WON for the Fugitive and he wasnt even nominated! Also shocked he did not get a nom for 42
He was kind of cartoonish in 42.
Great list! You had me at “Judith Anderson”. Ten is too few but here are a few of mine. James Caan, The Godfather. Ann Blyth, Mildred Pierce. Lawrence Harvey, Room at the Top. Toni Collette, Sixth Sense. Carroll Baker, Baby Doll. Not to remove any of yours, just to add to the conversation.
Samuel L. Jackson should have received his first nomination for Jungle Fever in 1991. I'll never understand how that performance was overlooked.
Sharon Stone was very much worthy of an Oscar win for Casino, but for Supporting Actress. Casino is not her story, it's De Niro's through and through and there are long stretches, especially in the final act when she's not onscreen. Had she been put in the proper category I feel she would have easily won it.
Burt Reynolds in Boggie Nights
In Old Hollywood there were many actors and actresses who were nominated one time only: Ann Harding for 1930's Holiday, Miriam Hopkins for Becky Sharp, Merle Oberon for The Dark Angel, Ava Gardner for Mogambo, Marlene Dietrich for Morocco and the list goes on, I always wonder why some performers back then and now sometimes only got one single nomination and never again they got a nomination
Diana Ross in Lady Sings the Blues - a spectacular, DEBUT performance that should have won her the Oscar.
Diana was amazing! What a performance! The only problem she was up against the iconic performance of Liza. Actually that year is still considered 1 of 3 best category performances ever. All were worthy contenders.
100% true. Ross was a revelation! Apart from the iconic performance that eventually won that year, I also think she might have split some votes with the Tyson (unfortunately). But Ross, would've had my vote, for sure.
Liza thought Diana was winning that night.
@@kellie-nd1yp because she changed her outfit.
Diana Ross in that movie was the definition of a star vehicle made just for her. There really isn't that much now, maybe Lady Gaga in A Star is Born would be one. But yeah Diana would have won it if she wasn't against Liza Minnelli in Cabaret which was clearly very second place behind The Godfather for best picture.
Instead of Ford, who gave his best performance in Mosquito Coast (his second collaboration with Peter Weir), I would have put James Caan on here. One of the most underrated actors of his generation who had nearly as much impact on The Godfather as Brando and Pacino (especially if you take the deleted scenes into consideration).
He is a lead actor in The Godfather. As much as Brando imo.
Welles' achievement in Citizen Kane is truly astounding. Being so creative in his directing, astonishing in his acting and sharp with his writing (along with Mankiewicz) in his early twenties, is, as you said, bordering on incomprehensible.
All I can say is: Tom Hulce as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Amadeus(1984). Saw that film for the first time when I was about twelve and it made such a big impression on me, especially Tom Hulce's performance
Lesley Ann Warren, for Victor/Victoria 👌
I would also like to shout out Meg Tilly in Agnes of God (1985)
Mrs. Danvers has haunted my dreams since I started watching classic movies at 8. Absolutely iconic!!!
So discounting everything from 2004-2023 I would go with;
1.Orson Welles-Citizen Kane
2.Giancarlo Giannini-Seven Beauties
3.Adrien Brody-The Pianist
4.Samuel L. Jackson-Pulp Fiction
5.James Caan-The Godfather
1.Cathy Moriarty-Raging Bull
2.Uma Thurman-Pulp Fiction
3.Kristin Scott Thomas-The English Patient
4.Sharon Stone-Casino
5.Juliette Lewis-Cape Fear
Personally id put Gene Tierney for Leave Her to Heaven on this list.
Some of my favorites are Gary Busey in The Buddy Holly Story, Pat Morita in The Karate Kid, Gloria Stuart in Titanic, Genevieve Bujold in Anne of the Thousand Days, Kathleen Turner in Peggy Sue Got Married, Teri Garr in Tootsie, Lorraine Bracco in Goodfellas, Shohreh Aghdashloo in House of Sand and Fog, Jason Miller in The Exorcist, River Phoenix in Running on Empty, Michael Clarke Duncan in The Green Mile, Doris Day in Pillow Talk. I would also consider Toni Collette for The Sixth Sense and Minnie Driver for Good Will Hunting but I am holding out hope that they will be nominated again someday.
Sir Charlie Chaplin has been a one-time nominee in the acting category too… He should’ve been in the top 2, along with Orson Welles…
Very good list and I agree with most. A few I would have included: Doris Day (Pillow Talk), Ann Blyth (Mildred Pierce), Lauren Bacall (The Mirror Has Two Faces), Chloe Sevigny (Boys Don’t Cry), Burt Reynolds (Boogie Nights)
Stockard Channing in "Six Degrees of Separation". I could rewatch it any day any time, she holds it all together.
Karen Black in "Five Easy Pieces", that was hers to win.
Lorraine Bracco in "Goodfellas", no explanation necessary.
Elisabeth Shue in "Leaving Las Vegas", the most broken kind of perfect in a once-in-a-lifetime role.
Mary Tyler Moore in "Ordinary People" -- if she had been in the supporting category she would have won hands-down.
Kathleen Turner in "Peggy Sue Got Married", hard to believe it's her only nomination.
I never watch a movie twice.
But Witness was an exception.
Fugitive was also very good.
Another good one-time nominee is Pat Morita in Best Supporting Actor for The Karate Kid.
I’d add Dennis Hopper, Peter Fonda, Janet Leigh, Tony Curtis, Anthony Perkins, Ned Beatty, Gene Tierney, Alan Alda, Eddie Murphy, Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth
Diana Ross in "Lady Sings the Blues"
I just came across your channel. So great. I love movies and the history. Thanks.
I can't believe Judith Anderson as Mrs. Danvers was not #1. Although the other nine performances are great, Anderson's performance is iconic. As good as Sam Jackson is in Pulp Fiction, I don't think it will be as well remembered in 84 years like Rebecca. I love Welles in Kane, but I think you are giving him extra points because wrote and directed the work. This is a wonderful video. Thank you for making me think.
I always thought Jean Hagen in "Singing in the Rain" sounded like Cyndi Lauper does when she speaks. The irony is that Lauper, unlike Hagen's character, has an amazing singing voice.
What a great list! All deserving selections. Maybe a follow-up list is needed. My first thought was Paul Winfield in Sounder. Also, Cicely Tyson for the same movie but she received an Honorary Oscar so I guess that disqualifies her.
Honorary Oscar was not a disqualifier. Cuz Sam Jackson got an honorary one.
Love your videos Brian....would love you to do videos of actors/actresses next in line for an oscar nomination.....as well as those next in line for a win. I reckon a top 30 for each would be an interesting list to compile for you!!!
Thank you for bringing up Harrison Ford. Should have won an Oscar a LONG time ago especially for Witness.
Liam Nesson in Schindler's List is my clear #1. Generational performance right there.
In the first video I watched on your channel you were not on camera. That's a good way to do it.
Alfre Woodard in Cross Creek and Harvey Keitel in Bugsy...these seemed fine, if underwhelming nominations for two great performers with long, excellent careers.
Did you know that Orson Welles made his stage debut in the Gate theatre in Dublin!!! I live in Dublin and am always so fascinated by this. I’ve visited the theatre many times for plays and his photos are there with all the other brilliant actors who have performed there. Other big names include Ralph fiennes, Michael Gambon and Frances mcdormand!!!
A fine list. Valerie Perrine in LENNY also comes to mind, and Diana Ross in LADY SINGS THE BLUES.
I like Harrison Ford for The Fugitive
Debbie Reynolds should be on the list for The Unsinkable Molly Brown and Peggy Wood for The Sound Of Music.
And considering his long career, it is surprising that Harvey Keitel has only one Oscar nomination - Best Supporting Actor for Bugsy.
Such a great concept
lol in desperate need of “another top ten” bc the picks are endless in this segment 😅 great video tho!!!!
Amazing and great list! I love all of these noms and EVERY FILM/PERFORMANCE!!! The Piano Lesson should be amazing too
I've got a soft spot for the ladies so here's my favorites Oscar one timers:
Jeanne Eagles (The Letter 1929) Before Bette Davis, a remarkable bold performance as raw gritty and unhinged as any captured on celluloid.
Elizabeth Hartman ( A patch of Blue 1965) Acting toe-to-toe playing a blind girl between two titans of the screen, Poitier and Shelly Winters.
Carrie Snodgress (Dairy of a Mad Housewife 1970) Quirky, unique and offbeat performance but steeped in pathos.
Jennifer Tilly (Bullets over Broadway 1994) Ballsy, comedic performance in the vein of Jean Hagen and Judy Holliday. She engineered and funded her own long shot/off the radar Oscar campaign.
Do a deep dive/analysis video sometime about Shirley MacLaine, who won on her fifth nomination for Lead Actress and then nothing for the past 40 years? Many potential chances for sure, like "Postcards From The Edge" and recently in "The Last Word" I'd love to hear your take!
Bill Murray in Lost in Translation warms my heart 💜 I love SLJ in Pulp Fiction too... CLASSIC EXCELLENCE 😀
Honorable mention for Toni Colette and Haley Joel Osment in The Sixth Sense.
Harrison Ford should have also got nominated for "The Fugitive".
Lily Tomlin gave a fine performance in Nashville, a film that deserved many acting nominations.
Harrison Ford not nominated and Liam Neeson not winning were a crime.
As a kid in the ‘80s, was it weird that I knew Harrison Ford for being in Witness? and when “The Last Crusade” came out I thought “oh cool it’s the guy from Witness!” … when I finally watched Star Wars as a teenager, my mind was blown. And I’ll answer my own question: yes that was weird.
Did you know that 617 out of the 980 people nominated for acting awards, have only one nomination? That’s almost 2/3
Let me re-emphasize about Orson Welles - that Orson Welles was TWENTY-FIVE years old AND his VERY FIRST FILM in which he acted, wrote, directed and produced !!! TWENTY-FREAKING-FIVE ... VERY FIRST FILM ... masterfully directed and magnificently acted -- IN HIS VERY FIRST FILM !!! And not just any film - CITIZEN FREAKING KANE - which is widely considered to be the BEST FILM OF ALL TIME !!! And again he was only 25 years old !!!
I know he was young when he made it, but how old was he exactly?
@@billcook4768 When you find out, can somebody please freaking tell me?!?!
James Caan in the Godfather 😅
Easy choice for me
In my opinion, Liam Neeson should have one for best actor for Schindler‘s list. His performance was so incredible
Tom Hanks played a gay man, and the Academy was woke, so that played a part.
No idea Harrison had nomination nor did I think Liam would only have one nomination. Always interesting to go back to see who/what won and got nominated hence why I love your channel. I hope Sam Jackson gets one this year too.
Lawrence fishburne was only 14 when he started filming on Apocalypse Now! ...unbelievable 😮
Katharine Ross in The Graduate and Kate Hudson in Almost Famous
I really think the Academy should be more flexible about the number of nominees. In a great category, perhaps 6 or 7--why limit to five?
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
Witness is awesome.
Judith Anderson was so good in Rebecca. (However, Rebecca, as great as it is, is less a Hitchcock movie and more of a David O Selznik movie). But, Judith Anderson was amazing.
Jean Hagan is one that I'm shocked that she never got another nomination. She was such a talented actress with a lot of range.
When Liam Neeson as Oskar Schindler breaks down and wishes that he could have save more people -- he could have sold his watch, his pin, etc., is so powerful and moving.
Well, Citizen Kane is supposed to be the greatest movie of all time (I don't really agree, but it's absolutely one of the most influential), so that would be consolation enough for Orson Welles.
Great list. There was one other one that you could have mentioned Gene Kelly in Anchors Aweigh. He was phenomenal in that movie.
Ned Beatty's five minutes in Network doesn't get an honorable mention? One scene and its amazing
