The 2017 Cinema Touch Awards - ACTOR


by
Julien Faddoul






5. Phantom Thread Daniel Day-Lewis
For his funniest performance. I feel like he hasn't gotten any credit for that, but as tortured as Reynolds is, his insipid childishness could fit right in on Curb Your Enthusiasm.




4. Columbus John Cho
For managing to inspire identification despite his self-effacing contempt for his own life. The more he hides from us the more sincere he becomes.





3. The Disaster Artist James Franco
For the year's best comic turn, but not one without a sombre colouration.





2. Call Me by Your Name Timothee Chalamet
For his commitment at portraying Elio as a needy child, making him look profoundly uncool. It's wonderful how he makes every hug dribble with that needy desire.




1. Good Time – Robert Pattinson
For delving into such a dark place and blowing me away in the process. Incredible. The film gains immeasurably from Pattinson’s performance as the most opportunistic of shrewd creeps.







Runner Up: BPM (Beats Per Minute) – Nahuel Pérez Biscayart
