As part of my 2023 movie wrap-up, this week I’ll be presenting my own nominations for the acting and directing categories (if I ran the Oscars). First up is Best Supporting Actor.
This was a very good movie year, with so many films jockeying for the top spots on my year-end list and so many performances worthy of singling out. In the interest of spreading the love, I’ve tried to lean toward performances that haven’t been recognized by the Academy when compiling my acting nominations. In some cases, though, I had to go with the favorites.
