Couldn't imagine such a list without Sunset Boulevard and Gloria Swanson's fantastic performance.

Also, Maria Falconetti in Passion of Joan of Arc.

I'm not much for judging acting, but I'll list the movies where I really liked a certain actor.

Nights of Cabiria (Giulietta Masina)
Soylent Green (Charlton Heston)
There Will Be Blood (Daniel Day-Lewis)
Three Women (Duvall/Spacek)
Johnny Guitar (Joan Crawford)
Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia (Warren Oates)
Cool Hand Luke (Paul Newman)
Muriel's Wedding (Toni Collette)
Blue Velvet (Dennis Hopper)
The Lady Eve (Barbara Stanwyck)

You mean like, movies with the most amount of great acting, or just singular great performances?

[prowler]
