It's somewhat hard to compare, because most of his other films are supernatural, and Kathy Bates brings a more naturalistic feel, but I think hers is the best I've seen. My top ten would be:

  1. Kathy Bates, Dolores Claiborne
  2. Jack Nicholson, The Shining
  3. Piper Laurie, Carrie
  4. Judy Parfitt, Dolores Claiborne
  5. Tim Robbins, Shawshank Redemption
  6. Gary Sinise, The Stand
  7. Kathy Bates, Misery
  8. Sissy Spacek, Carrie
  9. Michael Clarke Duncan, Green Mile
    10(tie). Christopher Plummer, Dolores Claiborne and Shelley Duvall, The Shining

Dang, no love for River Phoenix in Stand By Me?
