Shouldn't Downtown Abbey be somewhere on Maggie Smith's list?

I don't really feel Prisoner of Azkaban for Gary Oldman. JFK, Rosencrantz & Guildenstern, The Fifth Element all seem like better choices.

This may be a bit left field, but if Star Wars can rank third on Guinness's list, couldn't Lord of the Rings figure in for Cate Blanchett? I do think Star Wars might be a bit too high though.
Maybe Batman for Nicholson's as well.

Great topic, Tim!

About Kidman's list, curiously "Rabbit Hole (2010)" and "Moulin Rouge! (2001)" are not on the performance lists by year. I believe we forgot.

Jack Nicholson (update)
1. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)
2. Chinatown (1974)
3. The Last Detail (1973)
4. The Shining (1980)
5. About Schmidt (2002)
6. Five Easy Pieces (1970)
7. As Good as It Gets (1997)
8. Terms of Endearment (1983)
9. Batman (1989)
10. Easy Rider (1969)

Moved As Good as It Gets couple of spots lower in addition to Batman addition, Oscar win but I would say 1970 (Patton) and 2002 (The Pianist; Gangs of New York) had stronger competition than 1997.

Alec Guinness (update)
1. Bridge Over River Kwai (1957)
2. Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949)
3. The Horse's Mouth (1958)
4. Star Wars (1977)
5. The Ladykillers (1955)
6. The Lavender Hill Mob (1951)
7. Lawrence of Arabia (1962)
8. Olivier Twist (1948)
9. Little Dorrit (1988)
10. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (1980)

I still think Star Wars is deserving of a high spot on Guinness' list: his most famous/popular role, one of his only four Academy acting nods but maybe I lowballed The Horse's Mouth a bit initially.

Gary Oldman (update)
1. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011)

9. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
10. Bandits (2001)

I don't actually think her and Guinness are 1:1 comparisons with Star Wars and LotR, her role is quite a bit smaller and she wasn't singled out for acting awards the way he was but given that Blanchett's #9-10 are not the most major entries I think Galadriel can be on the list, just not super high.

Maggie Smith (update)
1. The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie (1969)
2. California Suite (1978)
3. Travels with My Aunt (1972)
4. A Room with a View (1985)
5. Gosford Park (2001)
6. Downtown Abbey (2010-2015)
7. A Private Function (1984)
8. The Lonely Passion of Judith Hearne (1987)
9. The Lady in the Van (2015)
10. The V.I.P.s (1963)

3. The Horse's Mouth (1958)
4. Star Wars (1977)
5. The Ladykillers (1955)

7. Lawrence of Arabia (1962)
8. Olivier Twist (1948)
9. Little Dorrit (1988)
10. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (1980)

I still think Star Wars is deserving of a high spot on Guinness' list: his most famous/popular role, one of his only four Academy acting nods but maybe I lowballed The Horse's Mouth a bit initially.

Star Wars Oscar nomination is always quite funny to me; it's not really a tremendous acting performance though it does anchor the entire film dramatically. I get that its iconic so it's whatever.

Cate Blanchett (update)
1. Blue Jasmine (2013)
2. Tár (2022)
3. Elizabeth (1998)
4. Carol (2015)
5. The Aviator (2004)
6. I'm Not There (2007)
7. Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)
8. Notes on a Scandal (2006)

I agree, not a real strong comparison, just something that struck me since, like you said, she didn't have the strongest entries anyway afaik. Like Star Wars though, she adds a serious dramatic presence, which isn't as central or crucial as Guinness's, but is something that is still remembered decades later.

I think Seven Samurai is Mifune's most acclaimed performance for sure.

Excellent work!

Yojimbo is his Indiana Jones so I guess I can see that too, but I side with Seven Samurai myself. It's a great list though, very happy to see Quiet Duel get recognition.

Gonna take a stab at Ethan Hawke real quick:

1. First Reformed
2. Blue Moon
3. Boyhood
4. Training Day
5. Before Sunrise
6. Before Sunset
7. Before Midnight
8. Before the Devil Knows You're Dead
9. Gattaca
10. The Black Phone

Some suggestions

- I could see The Wild One a spot or too higher for Brandon

- I'd have The Shining > The Last Detail

- I'd have In a Lonely Place quite a bit higher on Bogey's list, maybe #5

- I'd have Grand Illusion and Pepe Le Moko > Touchez Pas Au Grisbi

- I'd have OBAA at #5 for DiCaprio

- I'd have Going Places on Depardieu's list

- I'd say have The Conversation > Unforgiven

- I'd have The Seventh Seal > Pelle the Conqueror on MVS's list and I'd add The Virgin Spring and Shame. Hawaii also looks too high.

- I'd have The Leopard a bit higher on Lancaster's list

- I'd have The Pink Panther at #3 for Sellers' list

- I'd have Paths of Glory as Douglas's #1 and Ace in the Hole at #4

- I think The Third Man > Touch of Evil

- Id have Dracula at 7 on Oldman's list

- I'd have Magnolia as Cruise's number one

- I'd suggest this for Hepburn
1. The Lion In Winter
2. The Philadelphia Story
3. The African Queen
4. On Golden Pond
5. Adam’s Rib
6. Bringing Up Baby
7. Long Day’s Journey Into Night
8. Holiday
9. Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner
10. Little Women

- The Iron Lady looks a bit high on Streep's list

- I'd have Dangerous a spot or two lower on Davis' list

- I'd have Autumn Sonata > Anastasia

- I'd have Ninotchka > Anna Christie

- I'd have Butterfield 8 at 6 for Taylor

- I'd have The Umbrellas of Cherbourg at 2 for Deneuve

- I'd add The Passion of Anna to Liv Ullmann's list, and I'd have Scenes from a Marriage at #1

- I'd have Coquette a couple spots lower on Pickford's list

- I'd have The Piano Teacher as Huppert's #1

- I'd have Boogie Nights > Still Alice

- I'd have 3 Women on Spacek's list

- I'd have American Horror Story higher on Lange's list

- I'd have Kidman's list as

1. To Die For
2. Birth
3. The Hours
4. Dogville
5. The Others
6. Moulin Rouge!
7. Babygirl,

And then the rest

- I'd have Red Desert at 3 for Vitti

- I'd have Mamma Roma at 5 for Magnani

- I'd have A Woman is a Woman as Karina's #1

-

I think these lists need to make sense in relation to the lists we made by year.

Well, we haven't updated them in a while so doing the top 10 by actor from scratch might not be the worst thing. Plus as Man suggested, we prolly need to add non-English language movies to them.

Seconded. But wait for the top films by the greatest costume designers.

Put the updated lists up in the first page. Changes include implementing most of Man's suggestions (though I kept Touchez pas au grisbi at #2 for Gabin, Born on the Fourth of July atop for Cruise) expanding all the lists to 10 entries plus the changes for Keaton, Lloyd, George C. Scott, added Dubrow's Hawke's top 10.

Id also have Risky Business somewhere on Cruise's list.
