Oscars: Every Best Actor Winner In The Past 90-Plus Years
29.08.2022 - 20:53 / deadline.com
The Best Actor Oscar has been the pinnacle for leading men since the first Academy Awards in 1929 when the film industry started honoring its best and brightest.
Candidates for 2023 are many, including Hugh Jackman (The Son), Brendan Fraser (The Whale), Austin Butler (Elvis) and Christian Bale (Amsterdam), to mention but a few. Only time will tell who gets the next Best Actor Oscar, but time has told who the winners have been throughout history, and we have them all here for you.
The first winner was Emil Jannings, who was recognized for two films The Last Command and The Way of All Flesh. The latter film, directed by Victor Fleming, is considered a lost film. Only two fragments survive, both from the end, making Jannings’ Academy Award-winning performance the only one of which there is no complete copy. That first year is also the only time that Oscars were awarded for multiple performances.
Enjoy the stroll down memory lane with stills of every Best Actor winner of all time with an emphasis on some of the classics. There is Fredric March’s ghoulish role in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in 1932, for which he tied with Wallace Berry in The Champ, the only Best Actor tie. Spencer Tracy won back-to-back Oscars for Captains Courageous in 1937 and for Boys Town in 1938. Gary Cooper won two Oscars 11 years apart, for Sergeant York in 1941 and for High Noon in 1952. The list goes on.
Of course, there are exceptions to every rule and for two actors, the Oscar was a piece of hardware they didn’t want. George C. Scott was the first Best Actor winner to turn down the statuette for Patton in 1970. Scott said that he disagreed, in principle, with actors being put in competition with each other for an award.
