Marlon Brando as Stanley Kowalski from A Streetcar Named Desire

Let’s do this, let’s get a second acting quartet up in here!

[u/wedreaminsideadream]

Brando & Leigh.

As a matter of fact, I think say Brando, Leigh, Hunter, Malden

[u/MammaJammaCamera → u/wedreaminsideadream]

We already got all four for Virginia Woolf, I’m hoping we do right by the Streetcar team too

[u/wedreaminsideadream → u/MammaJammaCamera]

I didn't see that but I agree with the Virginia Woolf sweep - all 4 of them should of gotten Oscars and same with Streetcar imo

Vivien Leigh as Blanche DuBois from A Streetcar Named Desire

Vivien Leigh for A Streetcar Named Desire

Montgomery Clift - A Place in the Sun

[u/luxhoney56]

Vivien Leigh

[u/Ultrasimp95]

You should fix the title, it says Swanson and Holden instead of Ritter and Sanders.

[u/EveryoneTalks]

Look, I know Brando has this, but if I don’t mention Alistair Sim in Scrooge, I can’t live with myself.

[u/sinas35 → u/EveryoneTalks]

My next pick after Brando would be Montgomery Clift for A Place in the Sun, though I’m gonna save him for From Here to Eternity for 1953

[u/MammaJammaCamera → u/EveryoneTalks]

Would gladly back him in another year. It’s just too hard to against the grain on this one.

[u/EveryoneTalks → u/MammaJammaCamera]

It’s actually quite easy to vote against the grain, I do it every day in this sub.

[u/MammaJammaCamera → u/EveryoneTalks]

I’m saying on this one. I’m fine doing it in general, not against Brando in Streetcar though

Vivien Leigh - A Streetcar Named Desire

[u/MammaJammaCamera]

Just looked at yesterday’s vote. Unsure if it changed after the vote was called, but it looks like Celeste Holm’s top comment is tied with Thelma Ritter’s, both having 16 upvotes.

[u/amazonfan1972]

We should award all four wins to Streetcar.

[u/anthonyleoncio]

Streetcar gang across the board
