Top 3 Performances:
 

I did this game a few years ago. I don't believe anyone has done it here. It is all personal opinion. I name one actor/actress, and what I consider to be 3 of their best films. I then choose one actor/actress, from one of those 3 films, and the next person lists what they think that person's 3 best films are. Then they choose the next actor/actress, and so on. My first choice is . . .
