Best Actor nominees ranked in my order of preference:
- CHRISTIAN BALE – Vice
- RAMI MALEK – Bohemian Rhapsody
- VIGGO MORTENSEN – Green Book
- BRADLEY COOPER – A Star Is Born
not ranked – WILLEM DAFOE – At Eternity’s Gate*
* Willem Dafoe is not ranked as I have not seen At Eternity’s Gate, and won’t until its UK release a month after the Oscars.
And the omissions that I think deserved a nomination:
- ETHAN HAWKE – First Reformed
- BRADY JANDREAU – The Rider
- JOAQUIN PHOENIX – You Were Never Really Here

Was Bradley Cooper’s acting really good in A Star Is Born? It reminds me of Ryan Gosling nomination for La La Land with the star actually being his co-star.
I thought he was really good, not sure it was one of the top five performances of the year.
