#59 Marlon Brando, A Streetcar Named Desire (1951) Pretty neat to see it this high. |

Levy's worst fear came true: #57 Russell Crowe, Gladiator (2000) Never understood the love for the performance, which doesn't compare to almost any other ones Crowe have given (The Insider, L.A. Confidential, A Beautiful Mind, even Cinderella Man and Master and Commander). |

At least the pain from last pick should be offset by this one: #56 James Stewart, Rear Window (1954) |

Confidential American Gangster A Beautiful Mind Gladiator Cinderella Man |

Hmm, I always thought Crowe's turn in Gladiator was his second-strongest after A Beautiful Mind. |

That's 4 for Stewart.  #55 Helen Mirren, The Queen (2006) Finally another female performance, and one that I adore. |

Deserving for Mirren. The best female performance of last year definitely. |

This thread is going to help both Levy and me to get closer to our next respective milestones too (10,000 and 15,000).
