Good comparison. I think Ali probably edges it for me. I actually preferred Bridges over Johnson.

Johnson by far.

I agree this is a great comparison ... I watched Picture Show for the first time after Moonlight came out and Johnson's role reminded me so, so much of Juan from Moonlight. They are both beautiful performances, but Johnson's is more of an all-timer for me ... he conjures an absolutely devastating portrait out of such a small role and leaves a tremendous impact (even more so than Leachman manages to do, I'd say, unpopularly).

Johnson's got a magnificent monologue, but Ali edges him out before I feel he truly is the heart and soul of Moonlight and the movie really suffers when he's gone.
