There have been some terrific supporting role performances over the years,
George Kennedy in Cool Hand Luke
Brick top in Snatch
Charles Grodin in Midnight Run
Billy Crystal in Analyze this-That.
Ed Harris in A state of Grace
Sean Penn in At close range
What performances stand out to you over the years?

Great shout on Grodin, faultless performance in Midnight Run as was George Kennedy in Cool Hand Luke.
Christopher Lloyd in Back to the Future. Although it would have been a very different film if they had stuck with Eric Stoltz rather than getting in Michael J Fox.
Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss - JAWS
Grace Kelly - Rear Window
Dustin Hoffman - Midnight Cowboy/Rain Man
John Hurt - Elephant Man (if you can call it a supporting role)/Midnight Express
Heath Ledger - The Dark Knight
Michael Caine - Zulu
Harrison Ford - Star Wars
Leslie Nielsen - Airplane!
Alan Rickman - Die Hard
Morgan Freeman - Shawshank
Kathy Bates - Misery
Jack Nicholson - Few Good Men, The Departed, Terms of Endearment
Just a few!

I wouldn't have thought Billy Crystal was in a supporting role in both those films, wasn't he on equal billing with Bob De Niro? If anything Joe Viterelli as Jelly would be a good choice in a supporting role?
