I don't think Bacon has delivered a performance that is Oscar-worthy


3 Oscar-caliber performances by Bacon.

Murder In The First (1995)


The Woodsman (2004)


Sleepers (1996)

I didn't see the other 2, but you're correct, Sleepers is legit.

To put it another way, Bacon has been comparable to (maybe just behind) Hanks - but just not been in as many Oscar-worthy films.

Bacon's role in The Woodsman is one of the most under the radar great performances ever. Hauntingly depressing movie, one you won't forget. Plus, he was in Diner, a top ten all timer for me.

If it weren't for the Coen Brothers, Goodman would not be in this discussion. I'll go with Bacon.
