Top 25 – Male Performances in 2018

A very tough list to put together as it is really hard to narrow it down to 25 performances. I have somehow managed and the order could so easily be interchangeable between different performance types. But here are the 25 male performances that impressed me the most in films from 2018 that I managed to watch over the course of the year.

Take a look at who made the final list . . .

Musical Moments – A Star Is Born (Judy Garland)

From the first moment I saw A Star Is Born with Judy Garland I was totally mesmerised by her incredible performance. The moment we see her put everything into ‘The Man That Got Away’ is incredible.

The release of the trailer for the new version of the film starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga came out last week (Click here if you missed it) and it made me constantly think about this song and that I must watch this version again soon!

Trailer: A Star Is Born (2018)

Surely this is becoming one of the most remade films? Although I have only seen the 1954 version with Judy Garland which I totally love! Therefore I am very much looking forward to seeing a more modern take on the film, Bradley Cooper is also directing as well as starring opposite Lady Gaga. From this first trailer it really does look like it’s going to be a special film with a great soundtrack!

Due for release in the UK on the 8th October, could well be an early Oscar contender?
