4. Paul Newman in Cat On A Hot Tin Roof- Paul Newman gives a good performance as Brick, and shows the characters pains and frustrations very well.
3. David Niven in Separate Tables- The falseness of the character is well done, and then his later admittance of his actually nature is well handled by Niven.
2. Tony Curtis in The Defiant Ones- Curtis is very good at showing the depth of his character, and never overdoes a single part of his performance. His character's transformation is earned and feels natural opposed to artificial.
1. Sidney Poitier in The Defiant Ones- Poitier uses his natural charisma and his abilities to create a powerful character.
Alec Guinness in A Horse's Mouth
James Stewart in Vertigo

Wrong again! But was it hard for you to decide between Curtis and Niven? And would Stewart be your personal choice? I know a lot of people love his performance.
Yay for Niven! Great work!
What year is next? If you take suggestion, I would love to hear your thougths on 1967!
Joe Burns: Actually it was not that hard, I felt Niven really stood out as the best. But I was surprised because I did not think he would be my choice until I watched separate Tables again. Stewart might be my personal choice, but I would have to watch Vertigo again to be sure.
Fritz: Thanks, I'll do 67 after I do another year I had planned already.
I like Niven's performance but I'm just with Paul Newman here :)
