This is a tough one, but right now I'd say:
1. Alan Bates in A Kind of Loving
2. Marcello Mastroianni in 8 1/2
3. Klaus Kinski in Aguirre Wrath of God
4. Robert Duvall in absolutely anything (the most underrated actor of his generation)
5. Mary Woronov in Chelsea Girls
6. Robert DeNiro in Taxi Driver
7. Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate
8. Everyone in On Golden Pond (except the kid).
9. Harvey Keitel in Mean Streets
10. Al Pacino in Scarface (corny but great)
11. Benoit Poelvoorde in Man Bites Dog
12. Everyone in The Deer Hunter
13. Marilyn Burns in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
14. Tom Courtney in Billy Liar
15. Alison Steadman in Abigail's Party
