Wow! Zeta-Jones is brilliant as Velma Kelly, the sedusive and deceitful murderess/jazz singer. She is captivating every moment, and the strongest singer/dancer of the trio of central characters. Well-developed and great, but not worthy of her Oscar in such a strong year.Clip from 'CHICAGO': All That Jazz
54. MARIBEL VERDÚ (Pan's Labyrinth)
Verdu is entrancing as Mercedes, a woman caught between sides in the fierce battle in Fascist Spain. Verdu slowly turns from prim and drawn in to wild and loose in order to save the ones she loves. A fine, fine performance.53. JACK NICHOLSON (As Good as it Gets)
Nicholson is delightful (as always) as the spastic Melvin Udall, an uncaring and paranoid author. He is heartless, crude, and somehow lovable to the very core. An engulfing performance with a lot of development inside. Worthy of the Oscar it won.
