which actor would you most like to see win an oscar in the near future?

[texanna]

if there are any actors you like that wer enot nominated or did not win an oscar this year, which one would you most like to see win an oscar?

 

for me, now that kate winslet has won an oscar, the next one i'd most like to see win one is keira knightly, who has only been nominated once so far. if she gives a good performanc3 in some movie in the next year or so, i hope she gets nomianted.

I think I only saw one of the movies nominated this year, so...

 

But if I had to pick a celeb I like who hasn't won the award and should in my book, it would be...The envelope please. Tom Hanks!

 

He's my Jimmy Stewart of today. lol

[joefilmone]

Tom Hanks has won two best actor Oscars- "Philadelphia" (1993), "Forrest Gump" (1994)

[FredCDobbs]

Gloria Swanson for "Sunset Boulevard".

Hi Joe. Yes, I know TH has won twice, but the question was who didn't win this year. lol I like TH's body of work. He has that old Hollywood flair. He can do comedy as well as drama, and if he does another pic this year I wouldn't mind him winning another award next year. :-)

 

I know so few of the new kids on the Hollywood block it's not funny! If I had my druthers, I'd like to see Spencer Tracy win one and be there to pick it up himself. :-)

I concur. lol

Gene Hackman for "Crimson Tide" and "Unforgiven"

[Film_Fatale]

He did win an Oscar for *Unforgiven*. And he was good in *Crimson Tide*, but not as good as Denzel Washington.

*Great* I didn't know that. Hollywood got something right for a change. After a few post last night, I was really getting worried about the value of the Oscar.

 

Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington did performed equally well in "Crimson Tide". Ever wondered did such a scenerio actually took placed during the Cold War?

Greta Garbo in "CAMILLE." A wonderful performance.

[visualfeast]

Matt Dillon

Lili Taylor

[route66]

Those are both great choices, visualfeast. I've loved Dillon since "Drugstore Cowboy" and Taylor since the wonderful "Dogfight".

[Miss Spaulding]

I'd like to see Robert Duvall win Oscar in the near future. I know he's already won for *Tender Mercies* (1983-?), but he also should have won for *The Apostle* (1997-?). His performance in *The Apostle* is fabulous! I think he was so cheated out of an Oscar for that movie and should win for something else in the future to make up for it. He deserves it.

And Robert Taylor could present the award to her.

that would be quite a ceremony. yes, we're probalby DYING to see that.

 

obviously i had meant actors who are still alive and working. but ifyou want to make it about who you think should have won an oscar when they were still here, go ahead.
