It's disappointing to see lists of "great performances" as crowned by critics, for they're all so predictable. It's the same set of actors, many of whom did in fact deserve the recognition, but the others are simply phenomena of the film critic circuit, names that attracted hype and became legend through the hollow shell of that popularity alone. And although that sentence bears little relevance to the point of this list, it was a tangent I couldn't resist. Nah, this is just a record I've kept of memorable performances in the movies - ones that are magnificent Oscar fashionables, or that certainly should have been but were overlooked, or that showed the potential spark for an unforgettable character but were shafted by the director/writer/editing process, or that I simply find delightful. Enough boring intro...
