The OB/MA Group 100 Performances – 2017 Edition
A total of 30 Buzzers sent me lists of what they believe to be the 100 greatest performances of all time, and I have compiled them all into one. I will now be presenting the second list: The Top 25 Supporting Actor Performances. A total of 317 performances received votes in this category, but only 25 made it onto the list. How high did your favorites place? Or did they place at all? You’re about to find out! If you want to have a quick look at the 2014 edition of this list, click here.

Oh hey, that's my one point for Matt Dillon. Oh well. Also to whoever voted for Ray Wise, I'm sorry, he just missed the line-up for me. If this were TV, he'd be my #1.

Very funny. But the film left a bad taste in my mouth. Still he is most underrated as an actor around these parts.

Kline is very funny in the movie. I wouldn't think of nominating him, but I'm sure that he is miles better than some of the performances to come.

??? Really? He isn't bad (although the movie is disgusting in all of the wrong ways), but he just looks creepy is all.

I wonder who listed Spacey as their #1. I can dig it. Such a scene-stealing performance. You needed a really strong actor to bring to life this killer that's been haunting the screen for the past hour and a half, and Spacey sold it well.

*Aherm* Wrong performance. You mean Raging Bull.
You do mean Raging Bull, right? Please? Please tell me this is a mistake, and you guys nominated the one that deserves to be here.
