Pesci. I know De Niro will get less votes than he deserves though so I should have given him a vote.

Pesci, followed closely by Pacino. Obvious third is De Niro, and yeah, I’m gonna say Paquin is an easy fourth. Sue me.

As much as I was kind of mixed on the movie as a whole De Niro was actually may favorite part of it and my Best Actor winner for last year, so it was disappointing when he was the one thing about the movie not nominated. Out of the supporting guys, definitely Joe Pesci

If a valuable player is someone who does the most with the material they are given, Paquin takes this. Everyone else was thrown fuckloads of meat to chew on and she barely got a bone. Did she even have a single line? And yet she somehow managed to steal every scene she was in from those self-indulgent codgers.

What is your reasoning in giving it to Paquin over Romano with that reasoning?

Ray Romano had much more to work with, yet didn’t walk away with his scenes the way Paquin did with hers.

Paquin walked away with a scene? Did you sleep through the movie?

Paquin was great and yes, she ate every scene she was in. That said, I would not put her in the same spot as the main trio and would not compare her with Romano either given that she had better material.

Just because Paquin made the most of her material doesn’t mean she was the best. De Niro, Pacino, and Pesci also made the most of their material, it’s just that they had way more to work with.
