    • You're in trouble with the dead guys again JaiDee

      Welles was a genius. Perhaps not the greatest ACTor, but some of the movies ?
      Did you exchange a walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage

      • (JaiDee @ Jun. 07 2010,01:47) Better than him?

        see below.... seriously, with all the names listed in this thread, I don't think anyone has mentioned Jimmy yet!!
        Someone did mention him, me...      

        On the first day of this thread, I wrote this:

        But the male actors I prefer are all dead now & include Alec Guiness, Charles Laughton, James Cagney, Edward G. Robertson, Peter Lorre, James Stewart, Clark Gable & Rod Steiger.

        But my all time favourite? Only this guy - please step forward Humphrey Bogart.
        I will meet your Jimmy & raise you one Humphrey...        
        Despite the high cost of living, it continues to be popular.

          How do you speed watch a movie and make any kind of judgment on it?

          Calling Oates a so so actor is a joke. Ask anyone who worked with him. His peers often said he was as talented as any actor ever.

          Cagney was more of a leading man than a character/supporting actor, even though he made his rep playing tough guys.

          • Without looking, does anyone know which actor won more supporting actor Oscars than anyone else?

              • No. He's won one Oscar and it was leading actor. Tender Mercies

                      The result of another fuck up by the academy.

                      # 1979 Melvyn Douglas - Being There as Benjamin Turnbull Rand

                      * Robert Duvall - Apocalypse Now as Lt. Col Bill Kilgore
                      * Justin Henry - Kramer vs. Kramer as Billy Kramer
                      * Frederic Forrest - The Rose as Huston Dyer
                      * Mickey Rooney - The Black Stallion as Henry Dailey

                      Notice the name of Frederic Forrest, who was also Chef in Apocalypse Now.

                      • Walter Brennan, the winner of the inaugural award in 1936, is the only actor to win the best supporting actor award three times (from four nominations). Five other actors have won the award twice: Anthony Quinn, Melvyn Douglas, Michael Caine, Peter Ustinov, and Jason Robards. Robards was the only person to win consecutive Best Supporting Actor awards, for All the President's Men (1976) and Julia (1977).

                        Claude Rains and Arthur Kennedy share the greatest number of unsuccessful nominations, four each. The only other actors with four nominations were Walter Brennan (won three times) and Jack Nicholson (won once). Charles Bickford, Jeff Bridges, Robert Duvall, Ed Harris, and Al Pacino have each had three unsuccessful nominations.

                        Jack Nicholson has the most overall nominations with 12 and ties with Walter Brennan for most overall wins with 3. Peter O'Toole has the most overall nominations, 8, without ever winning. All his nominations were for best actor.
