The Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor is an award presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS). It has been awarded since the 9th Academy Awards to an actor who has delivered an outstanding performance in a supporting role in a film released that year. The award is traditionally presented by the previous year's Best Supporting Actress winner. However, in recent years, it has shifted towards being presented by previous years’ Best Supporting Actor winners instead. In lieu of the traditional Oscar statuette, supporting acting recipients were given plaques up until the 16th Academy Awards, when statuettes were awarded to each category instead.
The Best Supporting Actor award has been presented a total of 88 times, to 79 actors. The first winner was Walter Brennan for his role in Come and Get It. The most recent winner is Robert Downey Jr. for Oppenheimer. The record for most wins is three, held by Brennan–who won every other year within a succession of the first five years. Seven other actors have won twice. Brennan is also tied for receiving the most nominations in the category (with four altogether) along with Jeff Bridges, Robert Duvall, Arthur Kennedy, Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, Claude Rains, and Mark Ruffalo.

Venice Film Festival Golden Lion
<p>A chronological list of winners of the highest film prize at the Venice International Film Festival, including the Golden Lion and its historical predecessors. Founded in 1932, Venice is the world’s oldest film festival and one of the major international film festivals alongside Cannes, Berlin, Toronto and Sundance. Today, the Golden Lion is awarded by the festival’s international jury to the best film in the main competition and has become one of the most prestigious prizes in world cinema. The festival is held annually on the Lido as part of the Venice Biennale.</p><p>Notes:</p><blockquote><p>• The inaugural <b>1932</b> festival was non-competitive and had no official awards; audience referendums were held in several categories instead.<br />• From <b>1934 to 1942</b>, the festival’s highest award was the Coppa Mussolini, which was often presented separately to the best Italian and best foreign film.<br />• The official <b>1938</b> winner <i>Olympia</i> is represented on Letterboxd by its two parts, <i>Festival of the Nations</i> and <i>Festival of Beauty</i>.<br />• The <b>1940–1942</b> wartime festivals featured participation largely limited to Axis countries and their sympathisers. Although later excluded from the festival’s official numbering, their awards remain part of the Biennale’s historical record and are included here. The festival was suspended from <b>1943 to 1945</b>.<br />• In <b>1946</b>, <i>The Southerner</i> was selected as Best Film by the press commission.<br />• In <b>1947 and 1948</b>, the highest award was the Gran Premio Internazionale di Venezia.<br />• In <b>1949</b>, the Golden Lion of St Mark was introduced as the festival’s highest film prize and was later known simply as the Golden Lion.<br />• In <b>1953</b>, no Golden Lion was awarded after the jury concluded that no film sufficiently prevailed over the others and requested permission not to award the prize.<br />• In <b>1956</b>, no Golden Lion was awarded after the jury was unable to choose between <i>The Burmese Harp</i> and <i>Calle Mayor</i>.<br />• In <b>1959</b>, the Golden Lion was awarded jointly to <i>General Della Rovere</i> and <i>The Great War</i>.<br />• In <b>1962</b>, the Golden Lion was awarded jointly to <i>Family Diary</i> and <i>Ivan's Childhood</i>.<br />• From <b>1969 to 1979</b>, the Golden Lion was not awarded during a prolonged non-competitive period. The regular Film Festival was not held in <b>1973 and 1978</b>; the <b>1974–1977</b> period instead featured alternative and special cinema programmes, with 1974 and 1977 excluded from the festival’s official numbering<br />• In <b>1980</b>, the Golden Lion was awarded jointly to <i>Atlantic City</i> and <i>Gloria</i>.<br />• In <b>1993</b>, the Golden Lion was awarded jointly to <i>Short Cuts</i> and <i>Three Colours: Blue</i>.<br />• In <b>1994</b>, the Golden Lion was awarded jointly to <i>Before the Rain</i> and <i>Vive L'Amour</i>.<br />• Under the festival’s current regulations, <b>joint winners are no longer permitted</b>.</p></blockquote><p><i>This list is a branch of my</i> <a href="https://boxd.it/iIlA6" rel="nofollow">🎖️ Awards Masterlist</a><i> project.</i></p>

Teenage Wasteland: A Comprehensive List of Coming-of-Age films
<p>[after his parents have left, thinking he is ill]<i> "They bought it. Incredible! One of the worst performances of my career and they never doubted it for a second. How could I possibly be expected to handle school on a day like this? This is my ninth sick day this semester. It's getting pretty tough coming up with new illnesses. If I go for ten, I'm probably gonna have to barf up a lung, so I'd better make this one count. The key to faking out the parents is the clammy hands. It's a good non-specific symptom. I'm a big believer in it. A lot of people will tell you that a good phony fever is a dead lock, but, uh, you get a nervous mother, you could wind up in a doctor's office. That's worse than school. You fake a stomach cramp, and when you're bent over, moaning and wailing, you lick your palms. It's a little childish and stupid, but then, so is high school." - Ferris Bueller in</i> <a href="http://letterboxd.com/film/ferris-buellers-day-off/" rel="nofollow">Ferris Bueller's Day Off</a></p><p><i>"Dear Mr. Vernon: We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong.

I can never get enough of these films. A lot of these movies are my guilty pleasures. I would not necessarily admit to liking some of these movies in public, but I can relate to many of the characters and there is a bit of nostalgia in a lot of these films that take me back to my younger days, when life was simple (at times). There is also a connection that I established with many of these movies to periods in my life, which also enrich my viewing experience. I hope you enjoy and make the most of of this list, even if you only find one or two movies on here that you never saw and find it worth a watch. This list is in no particular order.</p>

Every Film Taught by Stan Brakhage in His Classes (1970-2001)
<p>This is a complete list of films shown by Stan Brakhage over the course of his 30-year teaching career at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and CU Boulder. I compiled this from his syllabi, which are held at the Brakhage Archive at CU. This is part of the research for my in-progress Brakhage biography, but I thought it might be of general interest. </p><p>With a list, you miss a lot of context. For instance, this doesn’t distinguish between films that Brakhage taught dozens of times in a wide range of courses (e.g., Cocteau, Eisenstein, Anger, Menken) and those taught once for a specific course (e.g., films starring Charles Laughton). Also, this is not exactly a list of Brakhage’s favorite films. He mostly taught films that he loved (or, in his parlance, that he distinguished as “an art”), but he also taught films that he disliked, especially in his contemporary cinema survey at CU, where he screened Godard, Bergman, Coppola, and other directors whom he did not much appreciate.</p><p>If a list of Brakhage’s favorite films and directors is of interest, the following is, in my opinion, nearly complete:</p><p>Georges Méliès, Walter G. Chase’s actualities of epileptic seizures, D.W. Griffith (which he later recanted), Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Laurel and Hardy (some), Entr’Acte, Symphonie Diagonale, Man Ray, Sergei Eisenstein, Aleksandr Dovzhenko, Dziga Vertov, Luis Buñuel (1929-33 only), Jean Cocteau, Jean Vigo, Carl Theodor Dreyer, Leni Riefenstahl, James Sibley Watson and Melville Webber, Joseph Cornell, Orson Welles, Douglass Crockwell, Sidney Peterson, James Broughton, Odd Man Out, In the Street, Venom and Eternity, Christopher Maclaine, Kenneth Anger, Willard Maas, Marie Menken, Jim Davis, Jordan Belson, Bruce Conner, Bruce Baillie, Will Hindle, Robert Breer, Peter Kubelka, Harry Smith, Ken Jacobs, Jerome Hill, Andrew Noren, Ricky Leacock, Paul Sharits, Hollis Frampton (some), Serene Velocity, Gunvor Nelson, and Jack Chambers. In the 1980s and ’90s, he began to really appreciate Werner Herzog, Oskar Fischinger, Len Lye, Andrei Tarkovsky, Sergei Parajanov, Larissa Shepitko, Jim Otis, Jim Herbert, R. Bruce Elder, Phil Solomon, Frederick Wiseman, and John Cassavetes.</p><p>The only course not represented in this list is his 1977 “Monograph on Brakhage” class at SAIC. The screening list was Brakhage’s entire oeuvre up to that point shown chronologically. I did include in the list Brakhage films that he showed to his classes in other, more general contexts, as I think this is revealing. Note that … (reel 1), Faustfilm: An Opera, Roman Numeral I, and Song 1 stand in for the complete series of which they are the first part (I didn’t want to enter them all in). </p><p>There were also a few plays filmed for TV that are not on Letterboxd.</p>

Jimmy Carter: Letterboxd President
<p>Matt Novak wrote an article <a href="https://gizmodo.com/every-single-movie-that-jimmy-carter-watched-at-the-whi-1728538092" rel="nofollow">here</a> outlining every movie Jimmy Carter watched while President of the USA. This is that list in the order he watched it. I see this as further evidence that Carter is the coolest American President alive and he would have likely had an anonymous burner on LB if it was around in the '70s. </p><p>Some tidbits:</p><p>Films Jimmy Carter watched more than once: Citizen Kane, Maltese Falcon, Manhattan, Annie Hall, Kramer vs Kramer, Lost Horizon, Rocky, Paper Moon, The In-Laws, Lost Horizon, 10 and Star Wars (4 times).</p><p>Directors who show up repeatedly: Billy Wilder, William Wyler, Delbert Mann, Michael Curtiz, Howard Hawks, John Ford, John Huston, Mel Brooks, Carl Reiner, Hal Ashby, Elia Kazan, Alfred Hitchcock, Herbert Ross, Peter Bogdanovich and Robert Altman.</p><p>Other directors that make you say, <i>Fuck yeah, Jimmy</i>: Kurosawa, Bergman, Truffaut, Fassbinder, Scorsese, Coppola, Friedkin, De Palma, Cassavetes, Peckinpah, Lean, Leone, Lumet, Malick, Siegel, Demme, Nichols, Rafelson, Ray, Fuller, Gillian Armstrong, and Kubrick.</p><p>Cracks me up that Midnight Cowboy is on the books as a President of the USA permanently on the record watching an X-rated movie. </p><p>Jonathan Demme's Citizens Band was watched as a new release, which is worth noting because it bombed so horribly it temporarily ended Demme's career until Peter Falk hired him to direct an episode of Columbo to get him back working again. Peter Falk was the only known fan of Citizens Band, at the time, but perhaps Jimmy Carter was, too?</p><p>Jimmy Carter had an absolutely galaxy brained double feature of Casablanca/Young Frankenstein on March 25, 1977.</p><p>He watched Star Wars at Camp David with Anwar Sadat, the President of Egypt, on February 4, 1978.</p><p> On November 19, 1980, at 7:31 pm, Jimmy Carter watched a film only labeled "". 9:23 pm he returned back upstairs. What was this mysterious film that went unlabeled? There is a Pulitzer Prize waiting for you, the reader of this dumb list, if you find that out. Godspeed.</p>

Nick's and SavageBob's 'Huge' Noirvember Challenge 2026: A Tenebrous Affair
<p>My first 'Noirvember' challenge!</p><p>⏳<b><i>Progress: 19/90</i></b>⌛</p><p>While having a conversation with <a href="https://letterboxd.com/lawrencetalbot/" rel="nofollow">Nick Feldman (@LawrenceTalbot)</a> on the comments' section of one of his lists, I learnt that he was running a <a href="https://letterboxd.com/lawrencetalbot/list/nicks-noirvember-challenge-2026/share/I7RELnBPTxydYOLk/" rel="nofollow">Noirvember challenge for next month</a>; in a bid to see if it'd work for me, I decided to try and compile a list that would help me learn more about noir around the world. As Hooptober has taught me, I love my list-compiling just as much as I love watching the movies at the end of the day, and I hope that my inaugural try with <a href="https://letterboxd.com/lawrencetalbot/list/nicks-noirvember-challenge-2026/share/I7RELnBPTxydYOLk/" rel="nofollow">Nick's Noirvember Challenge</a> is just as memorable and eventful! If you want to join in, go through his list of criteria and his <a href="https://letterboxd.com/search/m:LawrenceTalbot+noir/?adult" rel="nofollow">various lists about noir</a>; you might find lots of resources to help make the list-compilation interesting. </p><p>More recently, I also discovered that <a href="https://letterboxd.com/savagebob/" rel="nofollow">@SavageBob</a> runs a <a href="https://letterboxd.com/savagebob/list/the-big-noirvember-a-film-noir-challenge-3/" rel="nofollow">similar annual challenge</a> with his own categories. Initially feeling that I'd missed out on participating there, I thought what the heck, and I'm adding 30 additional films for his criteria too!</p><p>I've decided to stick with Nick's categories for all of the movies here (symbol=>➡️), add 30 additional categories of my personal choice (symbol=>⏩), and decided to add films satisfying @SavageBob's categories here (symbol=>🔜); the ones I'll rewatch will either be the ones sans a review that I'll update post-rewatch, or ones I've watched previously but never logged on Letterboxd. Some films are subject to change if I am not able to find them. </p><p>I know this is utter insanity, but so be it. Unlike my Hooptober challenge, I will not strictly adhere to watching 2 (in this case, 3) movies a night, and will treat weekends like a cable channel if required (as an example, I watched 5 movies on Oct 24, 2026). All reviews, as one would expect after such a mammoth task, will be brief. </p><p>A very nice Noirvember to those who celebrate!</p><blockquote><p><b>♠️QUICK EASY RULES:♠️</b></p></blockquote><p>🕵️♂️<b>One For Nick's Noirvember Challenge:</b>🕵️♂️</p><p>➡️1.

For Deleuze, philosophy cannot be a reflection of something else; philosophical concepts are, rather, the images of thought, to be understood on their own terms. Here he puts this view of philosophy to work in understanding the concepts—or images—of film.</em></p><p>Cinema, to Deleuze, is not a language that requires probing and interpretation, a search for hidden meanings; it can be understood directly, as a composition of images and signs, pre-verbal in nature. Thus he offers a powerful alternative to the psychoanalytic and semiological approaches that have dominated film studies.</p><p>Drawing upon Henri Bergson’s thesis on perception and C. S. Peirce’s classification of images and signs, Deleuze is able to put forth a new theory and taxonomy of the image, which he then applies to concrete examples from the work of a diverse group of filmmakers—Griffith, Eisenstein, Pasolini, Rohmer, Bresson, Dreyer, Stroheim, Buñuel, and many others. Because he finds movement to be the primary characteristic of cinema in the first half of the twentieth century, he devotes this first volume to that aspect of film. In the years since World War II, time has come to dominate film; that shift, and the signs and images associated with it, are addressed in Cinema 2: The Time-Image.</p><blockquote><p><strong>MISSING</strong><br />L'amour d'une femme (<em>Jean Grémillon, 1953</em>)<br />Appunti su un fatto di cronaca (<em>Luchino Visconti, 1953</em>)<br />C'était un Québecois en Bretagne, Madame (<em>Pierre Perrault, 1977</em>)<br />La concentration (<em>Philippe Garrel, 1968</em>)<br />Le rideau cramoisi (<em>Alexandre Astruc, 1953</em>)<br />Les enfants du placard (<em>Benoît Jacquot, 1977</em>)<br />La fête espagnole (<em>Germaine Dulac, 1920</em>)<br />France/tour/detour/deux/enfants (<em>Jean-Luc Godard & Anne-Marie Miéville, 1977</em>)<br />L'homme atlantique (<em>Marguerite Duras, 1981</em>)<br />Images pour Debussy (<em>Jean Mitry, 1951</em>)<br />The Last Moment (<em>Pál Fejös, 1928</em>)<br />Hadduta misrija (<em>Youssef Chahine, 1982</em>)<br />Mon coeur est rouge (<em>Michèle Rosier, 1976</em>)<br />Narkose (<em>Alfred Abel, 1929</em>)<br />Paris vu par... vingt ans après (<em>Chantal Akerman et al., 1984</em>)<br />Le pays de la terre sans arbre ou Le mouchouânipi (<em>Pierre Perrault, 1980</em>)<br />Un pays sans bon sens!
