2 Robin Williams - Good Will Hunting
3 Javier Bardem - No Country For Old Men
Perhaps the nominations were flawed but I fail to see this performance, Spacey in Usual Suspects, or DeNiro in Raging Bull as supporting roles. Apparently, the listing should be DeNiro from Godfather 2. Error report submitted
4 Robert DeNiro - The Godfather Part II
