Final Thoughts: I have to say, this is my favorite results of all the categories. First of all, three of the actors in the top 5 weren't even nominated for Oscars. Second, I finished both The Damned United and Moon thinking ... those are GREAT performances. Personally, I would go with number six on the list. Firth gave an impressive performance, and I thought he should win. Ben Foster should have been higher as well. Jeff Bridges? Well, it's that movie simply The Wrestler with music? It's a really strong performance, but his Oscar win had lifetime achieve award written all over it. Little Max Records was able to beat out many men to finish in the middle of the pack. Let's talk about last place for a minute. I can understand that voters didn't think Bruno was that funny, but who tries harder (for comedy's sake) than Cohen? I feel like that's worth some points.
