The Best Performances of the Year

Posted on December 19, 2016 at 3:30 pm

Thanks to Rogerebert.com for including my tribute to Viola Davis in the annual round-up of especially memorable performances. Many of these performances were in film that are small-budget or genre and thus are usually overlooked when it comes to awards. Each of the write-ups is a gem. Be sure to check out Angelica Jade Bastién on Natalie Portman, Sheila O’Malley on Trevante Rhodes, Simon Abrams on Stephen Lang, Alan Zilberman on Joel Edgerton, Christy Lemire on Lily Gladstone, Odie Henderson on Hugh Grant, Nick Allen on Tika Sumpter, Noah Gittell on Sarah Paulson, Brian Tallerico on Adam Driver, Sean Mulvihill on Alden Ehrenreich, Scout Tafoya on Gabriel Byrne, and Matt Zoller Seitz on Susan Sarandon.
