Who do you think should have won the 1995 Best Actor Oscar? Cage was the rightful winner in my opinion.

My favorite performance of Penn’s is in DMW. Yet, I’m going with Cage, who despite all the understandable shade he receives should have two Oscars, one for this and one for Adaptation.

Good Gawd! I voted for Cage because I felt sorry for him. I think he is very very good in LLV, Adaptation, and a few other besmirched films he’s been in; and I loved him in The Croods. And he’s winning this poll!

Penn! It’s so strange – I dislike the film and I’m usually not a fan of Penn’s work but dear lord he is just a force of nature in that role.

Cage was my second fav of the bunch. My fav was Massimo Troisi
