No order five male, five female. Not counting living actors like Deniro or Nicholson who don't do much i'm interested in anymore.
Daniel Day Lewis - There WIll Be Blood
Joaquin Phoenix - The Master
Vincent Cassel - La Haine
Ethan Hawke - Before Midnight
Oscar Isaac - Inside Llewyn Davis
Tilda Swiinton - We Need To Talk About Kevin
Jacki Weaver - Animal Kingdom
Amy Adams - The Master
Cate Blanchett - Carol
Natalie Portman - Closer
Probably forgetting loads.
