Best Supporting Actor Analysis

In a 20 year survey (2002-1983), and 10 year survey (2002-1993) the following statistics emerge (how often the award was the same as the Academy, 20/10):
  • British Film Awards (BFA) = 1/1
  • BSFC - Boston Film Critics; = 4/2
  • GG - Golden Globe Awards; = 11/5
  • KCFC - Kansas City Film Critics; = 8/4
  • LAF - Los Angeles Film Critics; = 6/4
  • NBR - National Board of Review; = 6/3
  • NSFC - National Society of Film Critics; = 3/2
  • NYF - New York Film Critics; = 4/3
  • SAG - Screen Actors Guild Awards; = 4*
Notes: Yeuuuch.

GG missed in 1985, 86, 88, 90, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99
SAG (since 1994) missed in: 1995, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002 (i.e. the last 3 years).

I'm going to go again with the idea that whenever GG & SAG agree, that will mean a lot, even with the difficult categories of the supporting awards.

This year's statistics are:
  • BSFC, KCFC, NSFC, OFC, SanF, TFC - Peter Sarsgaard - Shattered Glass
  • DFW, NBR, NYOC, PFC - Alec Baldwin - The Cooler
  • GS, NYF - Eugene Levy - A Mighty Wind
  • GS, IND, PP, SDFC - Djimon Hounsou - In America
  • IWA, WDC - Benicio Del Toro - 21 Grams
  • LVFC, SEA - Sean Astin - The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
  • BFC, CFC, CO, FFC, GG, SAG, SFC, VFC - Tim Robbins - Mystic River
Tim Robbins. No question.
