 CNN.com - It's a knockout for 'Million Dollar Baby' - Feb 28, 2005
Then, when nominees were announced from the audience for other categories, the winners gave their thank-you speeches from a microphone set up nearby, as if they were asking questions of a CEO at a conference.
As a show, the Oscars were notable for some new attempts at picking up the pace -- the show came in at 3 hours, 12 minutes, the shortest in years -- but suffered from a strange dynamic.
Hilary Swank won best actress for "Million Dollar Baby," her second Oscar in five years.

 TeeVee.org: TeeVee Awards '03: Best Hour Actor
Those are the ones who manage to make an end-run around their puppet masters, who subtly impart that beneath their clichéd exterior lurks a genuine human consciousness instead of a monkey with a typewriter.
Unfortunately, thanks to the enduring popularity of shows such as ER, Law & Order, and CSI, Hollywood has spent the last couple of years cranking out stylish ensemble dramas that emphasize situations -- violent crime, unexplained murders, extractions of foreign objects from the lower bowel -- over character.
The actor becomes a mere puppet, capering from crime scene to crime scene at the behest of the writer's insistent hand.

 USATODAY.com - Who's the best actor/actress in Hollywood?
He's been a favorite ever since I was a kid watching him on The Electric Company, and I have seen many movies just because of his participation — even Robin Hood and Hard Rain, both of which should have been TV Movie of the Night specials.
For best actor it would have to be Joaquin Phoenix.
You had to have seen her in movies like Jude, Heavenly Creatures and Quills to realize this, though.

 In best supporting actor, anything goes - More Oscar news - MSNBC.com
His role opposite Clint Eastwood in “Million Dollar Baby” is like a how-to guide for naturalistic acting.
These long-in-the-tooth actors seem to receive their Academy Awards not only for the terrific films they were nominated for, but for a lifetime of good work.
One of the hard parts about the supporting actor category is that some of the nominees seem like co-leads (this year, that would be all four others), while some really do seem like smaller, supporting roles.

 Academy Awards Best Actor

 Halfbakery: Best Character Actor Award
The actor who played the old man hinge-maker, who survived getting shot because the soldier's gun jammed, is the sort of character actor I'm talking about.
Existing categarisation system struggles when you get a film that doesn't really have a lead, but instead has many "supporting" roles (almost any Altman film: who's the lead in Shortcuts, Nashville or Gosford Park?)
I'm talking about people who may be way down the credits.

One of the best performances that will have you bouncing in your seat comes from her and I am ecstatic to see her be nominated.

The popular series Moonlighting, which often plundered old movie plots for parodies and fantasy episodes, put series' leads Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis into the shoes of Hildy and Walter for an hour in the late 1980s.
The large and boisterous supporting cast includes Mae Clarke, who plays a self-sacrificing streetwalker and once named The Front Page as her favorite film.

 Worst Oscar Snub Submission: Humphrey Bogart winning Best Actor over Marlon Brando
Of course the performance by the actor contributes to the award, it isn't the humanitarian award show, all I'm saying is that the character of the actor and how the actor translate himself in the industry plays a minor but important part as well.
Don't get me wrong, 'Streetcar' is undoubtedly one of my top 5 films of all time and Marlon Brando did have the BEST PERFORMANCE that year.
Long live, Brando - the greatest actor ever.

 Best actor belongs to Jamie Foxx - More Oscar news - MSNBC.com
Foxx is a 4-5 favorite to win as best actor (he’s also nominated in the supporting category for “Collateral”) according to one Vegas oddsmaker, 1-2 by another.  If he doesn’t win, it’ll be one of the biggest temblors to hit Tinseltown in Oscar history.
Both Scorsese, DiCaprio and screenwriter John Logan did a brilliant job of capturing the essence of the man. Yet he is still a character kept at several arms’ lengths from moviegoers, and that sometimes results in being impressed by an actor’s performance but not moved by it.
As an actor, he is probably best known for playing Harry Callahan in the “Dirty Harry” pictures, and as The Man With No Name (although he did have one) in the Sergio Leone Westerns.

 Entertainment Weekly -- Oscar Nominees Spotlight: Best Actor, Russell Crowe -- 02-23-01
Crowe may have signed on to ''Gladiator'' as one of our most promising actors, but by the end credits he had become something else entirely: a star.
In short, Best Actor winner Russell Crowe -- the thinking man's animal -- is the reason we're still talking about ''Gladiator''.
Moviegoers who had marveled at his performance as Bud White, the brutish cop with a heart of gold in ''L.A. Confidential,'' or his unrecognizably doughy (and Oscar-nominated) turn as ''The Insider'''s tobacco-industry whistle-blower Jeffrey Wigand, knew the 36-year-old actor possessed better chops than a Palm steak house.
