In Reply to: uh those 3-4 accounts of his own story conflict with each other and are directed more at the situation posted by Jazz Inmate on March 16, 2013 at 08:22:25:
Anton is excellent, as well. I'd have to say it's a draw. Spacey's in 7 or Usual Suspects are others but I'd put them a notch below (fall outside the time frame, too).

- The truth of a character's speech affects the quality of the performance???? WTF! - tinear 08:27:13 03/16/13 (21)
- WTF yourself. You made a big point about how those 3-4 scenes created a character "terrifying tragic and real" - Jazz Inmate 08:33:13 03/16/13 (20)
- So you admit a truth-test for an actor's speech is bullshit. The Joker by Ledger is - tinear 10:42:27 03/16/13 (19)
- No I admit you obviously weren't paying attention to the script - Jazz Inmate 11:09:49 03/16/13 (18)
- Blah, blah, blah. The truth in the Joker's speech hardly matters; it's part of his persona, as I explained. - tinear 12:10:49 03/16/13 (17)
- Hey, maybe you two love birds can argue about who was more important, Frodo or Samwise. - Enophile 15:39:15 03/16/13 (16)
- so you think Joker was the greatest performance in 10 years? - Jazz Inmate 15:45:54 03/16/13 (15)
- If you care to read the post, I said both are fine picks. You dipshits think 'art' is a zero sum contest. - Enophile 16:17:15 03/16/13 (14)
- That wasn't my pick for best. It was just one example to show the inanity of the Ledger proclamation - Jazz Inmate 23:26:38 03/16/13 (7)
- Funny, you attack the Ledger performance then equate it to an excellent one by Bardem. - tinear 09:34:40 03/17/13 (6)
- No, eno equated them. I cited Anton Sigur as one example that rendered moot your proclamation - Jazz Inmate 21:24:02 03/17/13 (5)
- I mistook you for someone with taste, i.e. eno. I'd love to know your favorite acting performances. Go ahead. - tinear 07:48:54 03/18/13 (4)
- My favorites include The Third Man, Taxi Driver, Marathon Man, Barton Fink NT - Jazz Inmate 16:21:02 03/18/13 (3)

- Exactamente, it's relative. There is no 'Best' performance - Tony D. 21:15:18 03/16/13 (1)
- I didn't choose a best. Tin did. I simply pointed out the inanity of his choice - Jazz Inmate 23:29:00 03/16/13 (0)
- You cannot seem ever to differentiate. I agreed Bardem is a fine choice. - tinear 17:24:37 03/16/13 (3)
- No reason to differentiate. You're the kind of guy who would argue in favor of having a favorite kid. - Enophile 19:22:55 03/16/13 (2)
