There were six performances by lead actors this year that I would be thrilled to see on Oscar's shortlist. Obviously two of the six aren't coming anywhere near it: One for completely understandable reasons (Oscar just don't do weird sci-fi films) and one for reasons I have yet to fathom. Both play doctors in their films. I guess this isn't the Emmys because neither of them got any awards traction.
But this is my nominee list, not Oscars, not yours. Make your own in the comments.
