Daniel Day-Lewis for There Will Be Blood?
Yes, that's one of them. 6 to go…
Renee Zellweger — Cold Mountain
I should have clarified that these actors are all men – so Zellweger may be correct, but I meant to limit the Q to men.
Sorry. My misread.
Jamie Foxx — Ray.
That is correct indeed. 5 to go…
Anthony Hopkins – Silence of the Lambs?
Heath Ledger? (Batman movie)
Ben Kingsley?
Heath Ledger is correct (The Dark Knight), but not Hopkins or Kingsley.
OK – here's some hints. All of the remaining four were relatively recent and two of them occurred in the same year ie one best actor and one best supporting actor. One of the correct answers (above) is half of the pair that won all the performing awards in the same year.
Javier Bardem for No Country for Old Men?
Phillip Seymour Hoffman (Capote).
Christoph Waltz (Inglourious Basterds).
Yes, that's all of them. Well done!
Oops – sorry. I left out the last one. Forest Whitaker for The Last King of Scotland…
