Lewis is getting a lot of love on the MB. I almost made the list consist of

Johnny Depp
Michael Keaton
Gary Oldman
Sean Penn
Edward Norton

That's a tough question, because there's a huge quality gap between some of these actors' best and worst roles. I'll give it a shot, though.

Numbers 1 and 2 are easy:
1. DDL
2. Nicholson

After that, it gets tricky:
3. Duvall (although he's fallen off in a major way over the past 20 or so years)
4. Hopkins
5. Freeman

There are 3 things that are facts:

Hopkins above Freeman.

Nicholson and Duvall may be even.

Hopkins doesn't have that big of a portfolio.

I like Jack and have enjoyed many, many of his movies but how often does he stray from the Nicholson persona? He's a great movie star, DDL is a great actor.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Chinatown, The Departed, The Shining, A Few Good Men. Off the top of my head, I'd say those are Jack's best performances; and each of those roles is completely different.
