4. Howard Rollins in Ragtime- Rollins gives a great performance that conveys the slow degradation of a man trying to maintain respect and decency.
3. Ian Holm in Chariots of Fire- Holm gives a great performance as a very particular athletics coach realizing the humanity, the humor and intelligence of the man extremely well.
2. John Gielgud in Arthur- Gielgud gives an impressive comedic performance as well as when needed a heartfelt performance. Gielgud takes every opportunity of his character an makes the most of it.
1. Jack Nicholson in Reds- Out of this great year Nicholson tops it. Nicholson gives an amazing supporting performance that rises far above his film. Nicholson despite his short screentime creates a fully realized portrait of Eugene O'Neil as a man.

Awesome, if possible can you do 2002 next please Louis?
:( Whatever. Nicholson is very worthy, too so I won't complain.
Yes! Another one for the brilliant Jack Nicholson!!! Please 1955 or 1951!
I hope you do 2008 soon!
What a surprise! I tought John Gielgud had it in the bag.
Eddie
a great year, um what about 1955 or 2008
Again I will consider all of those requested. The next year though I have chosen for a special occasion.
a clue perhaps lol =D a riddle
Have you seen Gallipoli? It's not as good as Breaker Morant as far as Australian WWI movies go, but Bill Hunter is unexpectedly good as Major Barton. (Mel Gibson also gives what is almost definitely his best performance.)
Another that I have not seen.
