The Australian born, “Ever-Popular”.... Mae Busch!

The star of Call Me By Your Name (and my pick for Best Actor) was also Lady Bird’s wealthy love interest.  It wouldn’t be a double-winner series without mentioning Timothee Chalamet.

Another shout out to this fantastic supporting player, Michael Stuhlbarg.  He was a busy actor this year with 3 Oscar nominated films in his repertoire.  First, as the laboratory assistant in Shape of Water, then as Abe Rosenthal in The Post.  But he really stole my heart as Elio’s dad in Call Me By Your Name.

This anime superfan went from working for his idol to running his own studio — Supporting Players Arthell Isom took his love of watching "Ghost In the Shell" to working for the show's art director in Japan.

Caleb Landry Jones did triple duty last year.  First he sold Frances McDormand Three Billboards, then he helped Willem Dafoe move a refrigerator in The Florida Project.  But prior to either of those he showed us his despicable side in Get Out.  Three very different roles all by one red-head.  The Florida Project wasn’t nominated for best picture but the other two films were.  Both of the nominees were made better because of Caleb.  He takes a real beating in Billboards and provides the white trash element for Get Out.  The Florida Project lets his character in but doesn’t develop him after.  Still, what a  2017 pedigree.

Just wanted to give a shout out to some of the supporting players in this years’ Oscar nominated films.  First up Lucas Hedges.  You may remember him from last year’s Manchester By the Sea.  This year he did double duty as the son in Three Billboards and as the boyfriend with a secret in Lady Bird.  Without Lucas, Frances would have had to talk to herself at the table and Saoirse would have had to walk home alone.

Hades will be added when typed to the Once Upon a Time: Arc Villains post. I am rethinking Merlin’s typing (Camelot Arc Types) and changing it from INTJ back to INTJ. That would mean I have to rearrange the chart. Hopefully Hades will be the first OUAT INTJ. Then we will have a complete chart again. But I won’t type based on needing to fill a chart. Stay tuned.
