Joaquinn Phoenix is killing it right now.
The Master
Her
Inherent ViceThree very different roles, all played masterfully, all within a two year period. And in the middle of that he also starred in The Immigrant, which I haven't seen yet, but it was nominated for the Palme d'Or, so it can't be too bad.
He's consistent and shows a huge range.

Im convinced its Dicaprio. Between Aviator and Departed, its not easy for me to find much better acting performances these days.

My vote: Steve McQueen - The king of cool!
The man came from nothing (Survived the great depression where his step father would regularly beat him within an inch of his life and then abandoned him to a boys home), overcame dyslexia and being partially deaf, became a US Marine, accomplished professional motorcycle and car racer, hated the fake Hollywood bullshit and cranked out some killer movies. Mcqueen would regularly visit his boys home and donated to tons of charities helping orphaned children. He was a true underdog, a man's man and amazing actor.
- almost as good as TC, but with more body thetans so no thanks :/georgesIII
- Georges, I watched a screening of "Going Clear" last night. I highly recommend it - Truly disturbing stuff.GM278

I think we place too much importance on individual actors. A lot of it depends on the director, the editor, the quality of the script. The people perceived as the best actors are people like Di Caprio and Phoenix who can land high quality roles, and who are very selective about which films they star in.
