Premiere Magazine (in its April 2006 issue), in an article written by numerous authors, published a list of the 100 Greatest (Movie) Performances of All-Time, to celebrate the best movie performances in film history. The defining performances were excerpted and abbreviated from the article.
Facts and Commentary About the List:
The authors described the movie performances: "They made us laugh, they made us cry....We love great movies the most - we feel the most electric connection to them - when the actors look out from that big screen, and hook into us. They make us believe that they're the people they're playing and that we, as viewers, have a genuine stake in what's coming next."
