Here are my top ten, with quotes from some of the best moments in their performances. There are some fairly significant SPOILERS in the quote from The Manchurian Candidate, and very minor spoilers for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

  1. F. Murray Abraham, Amadeus - "I was staring through the cage of those meticulous ink strokes - at an absolute beauty."
  2. Kevin Spacey, American Beauty - "Today I quit my job. And then I told my boss to go beep himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost sixty thousand dollars. Pass the asparagus."
  3. Angela Lansbury, The Manchurian Candidate - "But now, we have come almost to the end. One last step. And then when I take power, they will be pulled down and ground into dirt for what they did to you. And what they did in so contemptuously underestimating me."
  4. Frances McDormand, Fargo - "And here you are, and it's a beautiful day."
  5. James Stewart, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington - "You think I'm licked. You all think I'm licked. Well, I'm not licked. And I'm going to stay right here and fight for this lost cause. Even if the room gets filled with lies like these, and the Taylors and all their armies come marching into this place!"
  6. Kathy Bates, Misery - "THEY DO NOT! At the feedstore do I say, "Oh, now Wally, give me a bag of that F-in' pig feed, and a pound of that bitchly cow corn"? At the bank do I say, "Oh, Mrs. Malenger, here is one big bastard of a check, now give me some of your Christ-ing money!" THERE, LOOK THERE, NOW SEE WHAT YOU MADE ME DO!"
  7. Martin Landau, Ed Wood - "No more. I haven't worked in four years. This business, this town, it chews you up, then spits you out. [
    pause
    ] I'm just an ex-boogeyman."
  8. Audrey Toutou, Amelie - "Let me help you. Step down. Here we go! The drum major's widow! She's worn his coat since the day he died. The horse's head has lost an ear! That's the florist laughing. He has crinkly eyes. In the bakery window, lollipops. Smell that! They're giving out melon slices! Sugarplum, ice cream! We're passing the park butcher. Ham, 79 francs. Spareribs, 45! Now the cheese shop. Picadors are 12.90. Cabecaus 23.50. A baby's watching a dog that's watching the chickens. Now we're at the kiosk by the metro. I'll leave you here. Bye!"
  9. Louise Fletcher, One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest - "You know Billy, what worries me is how your mother is going to take this."
  10. Toshiro Mifune, Seven Samurai - "But then who made them such beasts? You did! You samurai did it! You burn their villages! Destroy their farms! Steal their food! Force them to labour! Take their women! And kill them if they resist! So what should farmers do?"
    Honorable mentions: Phillip Seymour Hoffman (Capote), Orson Welles (Citizen Kane or Touch of Evil, take your pick), Jack Nicholson (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest), Anthony Hopkins (Silence of the Lambs), Tom Hanks (Cast Away, Philadelphia), and Peter Sellers (Dr. Strangelove).
    This happens. This is something that happens.
