>>99035826I mean yeah sure.
Javier Bardem delivered a good and thrilling performance in mother! (not a leading role).
Hugh Jackman in Logan delivered a good performance but he didn't get nominated for it.
Hell, Daniel Craig in Logan Lucky was a good performance (also not a leading role).
And I think most of them had a better role that acted in performance above Daniel Kaluuya's character in Get Out.
>>99035841Are you saying Get Out's screenplay is on par with Jonathan "Close-Up" Demme's rendition of Silence of the Lambs?
Acting on par with Jodie Foster?
Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal?
>>99035913>And he deserved to win, it was one of the most powerfully understated performances of the year.I never said he was awful, I said he was ok.
>Dude expresses everything we need to know with little hand movements and facial expressions. I assumed the hand movements, ticks and non-emotive tears was more of the story's narrative rather than the actor's strength.
Like he did because the script basically called for it.
>>Oldman and DenzelI am actually glad Oldman won.
I was completely at awe with the mannerisms, modes of speech delivery, range of emotion he used to play Churchill despite the heavy costume and makeup on his face.
There was never a dull or dragging moment when he's on scene.
