the cool thing about threads like this is it jogs ones memory...yes that was a fine and unexpected performance from Williams. He is a frustrating actor, clearly is a talented guy, but all to often saddles himself with mawkish nonsense.

BIB. Couldn't agree more. Two of my favourite film performances.
Gary Oldman for Sid and Nancy.
Chloe Webb for Sid and Nancy as well.
Daniel Day-Lewis for My Beautiful Laundrette.
Miranda Richardson for Dance With a Stranger.
Philip Seymour Hoffman won for Capote that year, and i think most would argue that if anyone deserved to win over him it was Heath Ledger for Brokeback Mountain....good year for acting performances, as David Strathairn was also excellent in Good Night and Good Luck.
It never hurt Stanley Tucci's chances though as he got one
true, but then he was Stanley Tucci, a guy much respected in hollywood who had never previously been recognised by the academy, which i think does make a difference, whether it should or not.

If only there was a category for scenery chewing. Shocking performance that deserved derision, not awards.

well of course , but the point is - it's very rare that someone can create an iconic character that resonates like the ones I'm talking about .

Mia Farrow - Rosemary's Baby

erm he was nominated....

Plus one.
well he has won twice and been nominated on a further three occasions so i don't think he can grumble too much
The film wasn't very well received critically which damaged her chances really.
