Not only a ranking of some of the best and most memorable acting of this decade (so much so it often feels unfair to compare a biopic performance to an original character, and Oscar bias makes that clear), but also an interesting snapshot at whom we commemorate. My List: 10. Hitchcock 2012: Anthony Hopkins as Alfred Hitchcock
9. The Social Network 2010: Jesse Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg
8. Vice 2018: Christian Bale as Dick Cheney
7. Black Mass 2015: Johnny Depp as Whitey Bulger
6. Bohemian Rhapsody 2018: Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury
5. I, Tonya 2017: Margot Robbie as Tonya Harding
4. Judy 2019: Renee Zelweger as Judy Garland
3. The Theory of Everything 2014: Eddie Redmayne as Stephen Hawking
2. Jackie 2016: Natalie Portman as Jackie Onassis Kennedy
[/spoiler]1. Lincoln 2012: Daniel Day-Lewis as Abraham Lincoln[/spoiler] |

If you count You Don't Know Jack, then it's Pacino as Kevorkian. One of the best performances of his career and that says a lot.
If we are talking only about cinema, it's Redmayne in The Theory of Everything. Marvellous acting!!
Others:
Cumberbatch, The Imitation Game
Carrell, Foxcatcher
DDL, Lincoln
Eisenberg, Social Network
Malek, BR

Dadsburgers' top 3 are everything.  It's not necessarily a great *performance* but I have to give a shout-out to Jiro Horikoshi (played by Hideaki Anno) in Miyazaki's The Wind Rises. |
