Match Cut's "Performance of the 2010s" - A MC Tourney - The FYC Stage

[Ezee E]

Simple enough, we need to figure out what the best performance of the decade is...

But first the brainstorming stage. We need at least 32 performances to advance... Any kind... Movie, TV, lead, supporting, animated...

Utilize this thread to brainstorm, organize your lists, share your considerations... Debate.

Coming soon will be the official nomination and bracket page.

Some suggestions:

Lewis MacDougall - A Monster Calls
Robin Wright - The Congress
Teyonah Parris - Chi-Raq
Toni Collette - Hereditary
Kim Hye-ja - Mother
Joaquin Phoenix - The Master
Tatiana Maslany - Orphan Black
Nina Hoss - Phoenix

Might be a proper FYC post coming later when I thought more about it, but for now right the top off my head, it would be hard to top Marion Cotillard in Two Days, One Night as my favorite of the decade.
