Nice thread!
 

Peter O’Toole, Lawrence Of Arabia

Marlon Brando, On The Waterfront

Jimmy Stewart, It’s A Wonderful Life

Henry Fonda, The Grapes Of Wrath

Daniel Day-Lewis, There Will Be Blood

 

Don’t want to be completely sexist, so I will add Bette Davis, All About Eve.

 

My favs though are:

Clint Eastwood, Dirty Harry

Malcolm McDowell, A Clockwork Orange

Charlie Chaplin, City Lights

Humphrey Bogart, Casablanca

Robert DeNiro , Taxi Driver

I am not a big Tom Hanks fan, but his performance in Cast Away is epic, and he was totally robbed out of an Oscar. I think Russell Crowe got it for Gladiator, which is an absolute joke if you look at both movies now in hindsight.

To bring your list to five, I’ll throw in one I’m surprised hasn’t been mentioned already: 

 

Tom Brady trying to convince the refs he was hit late, in the head or below the knees.
