Best Supporting Actor 1986: Results

Friday, March 30, 2012

5. Denholm Elliot in A Room With a View- Elliot is fine in his few scenes but he never makes much of an impact with his performance.
4. Dennis Hopper in Hoosiers- Hopper gives a moving and effective performance that might not be on the level of his work listed below, but it is still a good performance.
3. Willem Dafoe in Platoon- Dafoe realizes his good sergeant character by never overplaying the part and turning his character into a believable descent man that is more than just a moral.
2. Tom Berenger in Platoon- I give the slight edge between the two Platoon men because he has the even greater challenge to avoid becoming just simple villain. He realizes the intensity and interestingly enough when he can the humanity of his character.
1. Michael Caine in Hannah and Her Sisters- Caine wins  in this fairly strong year with his all over the place yet withdrawn and subdued performance as the man who lusts after his wife's sister. It it almost a scatter shot of emotions which Caine is able draw upon to realize his character while even finding some humor in the role as well.
Deserving Performances:
Dennis Hopper in Blue Velvet
Daniel Day-Lewis in A Room With A View
Steve Martin in Little Shop of Horrors
