My ranking:
1.Neal one of the best winners ever.Only someone who's not actor can dislike this performance
2.Caron great
3.Roberts great
4.Wood good
5.MacLaine not that good. Need to rewatch her though; January 5, 2012 at 12:36 AM

I guess you'll go with Caron.; January 6, 2012 at 7:22 AM

Alex Constantin said...: I am completely lost with 1963. I've only seen parts of MacLaine's performance. :) so i can't judge.; January 21, 2012 at 7:46 PM
