Best Actor
By an Amazon.com customer

	Some Like It Hot Buy used from: $3.82 jack lemmon is the bomb! his performance as daphne is one of the funniest works on film. it's untouchable!
	The Apartment Buy used from: $3.98 jack lemmon's cc baxter is the man all girls should bring home to mother! he is loveable schlub with a dangerous edge. watch out--his darkness will come out before you know it!
	Road Movie Buy new: $26.99 / Used from: $3.81 this film is the spirit of the independent film. and robert drivas gives his performance as an itinerant trucker his all!
	The Pawnbroker Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $8.94 i don't understand this film but steiger's work is so immediate and so clear that i suffer through it every time just to appreciate his artistry.
	Dutchman Buy used from: $149.18 al freeman, jr. gives as good as he gets from shirley knight as the tortured victim clay to knight's demonic lula. see it on a rainy afternoon then take a ride on the a train uptown!
	My Beautiful Laundrette Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $6.25 daniel day-lewis was and is one of the real actors in recent film. his johnny, the randy british lover of the young indian boy, was so sexy it burned my corneas!
	Little Voice Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $4.75 michael caine missed out on an oscar nomination for this film and honestly, i don't know why. his portrayal of sleazy agent ray say is so multi-layered! funny, tragic, and so well-supported by everyone!
	A Clockwork Orange Buy used from: $4.95 even though it came early in his career, malcom mcdowell really clinched this one as alex, a very bad boy. makes you still want to punish him!
	Last Tango in Paris Buy new: $14.98 / Used from: $5.68 i didn't think i could or would say this. i think that watching a documentary about brando shows every affectation he had and then some. so why is this performance so haunting? it is because he revealed so much of the man he was and not the technician he could be. enough said.
	The Magnificent Ambersons [Region 2] Buy used from: $23.60 tim holt is too perfect as george amberson minafer. and one of the great mysteries of this film is still the last two minutes. it's melodramatic to say the studio ruined it but they sure did make the final product very confusing.
	In Cold Blood Buy new: $14.94 / Used from: $3.88 robert blake's performance as perry smith pretty much wipes out everyone that has come after him. with every other actor there is an assortment of edgy ticks (eric roberts)or too much sexual energy (daniel craig). blake is, simply, haunting in the part.
