HISTORY:

To previously placed 17th in 2007 for Exiled. Many of his films haven't been eligible, however.

McConaughey graduates to the lead category after occupying three (3) of the 20 slots in last year's Supporting Actor race; he finished 12th for Bernie, 6th for Killer Joe, and 3rd for Magic Mike. Taylor makes her first appearance since way back in 1996, when she placed 5th in the lead category for I Shot Andy Warhol. Ross and Keach are new—the latter's best work predates the survey, obviously.

Holofcener's screenplay for Lovely & Amazing landed at #10 in 2002.
