3.Kevin Spacey in American Beauty- Although I like some of what Spacey does in the role, particularly in the setup of the character, I find he generally overacts, and seems unnatural, where realism would have served his character best.
3. Denzel Washington in The Hurricane - Washington gives a compelling portrayal of his character, though I do think the writing limits him.
2. Russell Crowe in The Insider- Crowe gives a restrained and effective performance, that never takes the easy route and to be too expressive, instead remaining properly with the nature of the character.
Deserving Performances:
Jim Carrey in Man on the Moon

So pleased you gave Farnsworth the win. Easily should have won the Oscar that year
Wow, Spacey's third? I NEED to see The Straight Story right now. A random question: What did you think of Farnsworth's performance in Misery?
Please do 1953, 1966 or 2002!!!
I liked him in Misery, even though he was not given a great deal to do.
I expected Farnsworth to win.
We agree again and again :)
Farnsworth is gonna get into the top 5 at least, I think.
Farnsworth wipes the floor with Spacey. Glad he won
what did you make of Brad Pitt and Edward Norton in Fight Club??.
I thought they were both good, but I have only watched the film once awhile ago.
