I thought Josh Brolin had a pretty good year even if he was playing almost the same character in "American Gangster', "No Country for Old Men", and "Planet Terror." Who would have thought Brandon from "The Goonies" would grow up to be such a sleazebag?

Daniel Day-Lewis was a little one-dimensional, but damned if he wasn't a lot of fun to watch.

Some of my other favorites...

Best Actor:
Viggo Mortensen, "Eastern Promises"
Philip Seymour Hoffman, "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead"
George Clooney, "Michael Clayton"

Best Actress:
Julie Christie, "Away from Her"
Ellen Page, "Juno"
Amy Adams, "Enchanted"
Angelina Jolie, "A Mighty Heart"

Best Supporting Actor:
Javier Bardem, "No Country for Old Men"
Sacha Baron Cohen, "Sweeney Todd"
Casey Affleck, "Assassination of Jesse James"
Kurt Russell, "Death Proof"
Ben Foster, "3:10 to Yuma"

Best Supporting Actress:
Cate Blanchett. "I'm Not There." She was amazing.
Tilda Swinton, "Michael Clayton"
Samantha Morton, "Control"
Amy Ryan, "Gone Baby Gone"

I think some of the best performances of the year were in supporting roles

Actually John, I agree a lot with what you say. There are so many good supporting performances thesedays with some of my favourite actors. I mean take a look at Robert Downey JR in "Zodiac", or Javier Bardem in NCFOM. There are also a number of tried and trusted supporting role stalwarts that come to mind that always deliver the goods such as William Fichtner, Tom Sizemore, Ted Levine, James Cromwell, Jennifer Jason Leigh and David Straithairn to name but a few...
