It’s a very clear LEAD performance, in my opinion.

It's about the chaotic editing in Moulin Rouge!

Agreed. He’s more lead than Amy Adams tbh. (Not that she’s supporting.)

The billing on the official poster I find pretty accurate in descending order of narrative ‘importance’: Bale-Cooper-Adams-Renner-Lawrence.

<i>American Hustle</i> has three leads. Christian Bale and Bradley Cooper are both just as prominent as each other (and neither deserved nominations). Amy Adams is the least prominent but she still plays a key role in the narrative structure of the film.

FYC Emmys: "The Crown" in all categories, "I May Destroy You" in all categories, "It's a Sin" in all categories, "Small Axe" in all categories, Billie Piper ("I Hate Suzie"), Yvonne Strahovski ("Stateless") and Ruth Wilson ("His Dark Materials")

Haven’t seen it in years but I remember Bradley being very prominent so I consider him Lead.

FYC:

Carey Mulligan - Best Actress
Maria Bakalova - Best Supporting Actress

I loved American Hustle, but it surprised me that the critics loved it too. I thought it was an awards thing only.

To me, it´s lead but just like Pitt with OUATIH or Kaluuya with JATBM I could see why it was frauded into supporting.

A great peformance, but it was kind of category fraud in the same way as Brad Pitt or Mahershala Ali. And, like those two, I think he deserved in win in this category for his performance – controversial as that take is haha.

A very annoying young man, who loves cinema. 🙂

Definitely lead, however although she’s supporting its Jennifer’s movie through and through!
