The film received Oscar nominations for Best Picture, Best Actor (Humphrey Bogart), Best Supporting Actor (Tom Tully), Best Screenplay, Best Sound Recording (John P. Livadary), Best Film Editing, and Best Dramatic Score (Max Steiner).
Captain Queeg loses it.
This was not a Bogart tough guy role.

Cranston as Walter White is the best in recent times. To maintain that excellence over such a period of time, he deserved every Emmy.

If he continues to put out performances like that, hell yea.
He has to have to the greatest agent ever, he's been on an absolutely ridiculous run since 2011, and even further back if you excuse his rom coms and Prince of Persia (which I actually enjoyed). This year is gonna be awesome seeing that he has 3 films coming out.

I really have never understood the love for Marlon Brando in the Godfather. What does he do that's that amazing, or even moderately impressive, at all? It's a fat guy mumbling his lines. Who cares? I don't get the love for the Godfather in general. I thought I & II were both boring. Give me Goodfellas over the Godfather any day.
while i disagree with your overall assessment of the godfather, I'm with you on Brando; i never understood what was so impressive about his performance.

Agreed. I'd even argue his was the 2nd best performance playing that character. Hell, Deniro even learned Italian for his role

Movies that I can watch over and over:
Tombstone Val Kilmor "Say When"
Al Pacino Scent of a women at Charlie's disciplinary hearing, "This is such a croc of shite!"
Jon Heder, Napoleon Dynamite "Give me some of your tots!”

This is one I don't really understand. All he did was talk in a weird voice. Far from the best acting job of all time. I'm surprised he won an Oscar for it.
