Best Actor in a Supporting Role

"Across the Universe" - JOE ANDERSON
As a newcomer, British born actor Joe Anderson has made his mark as the carefree, happy Max in Julie Taymor's "Across the Universe". With not much acting experience (he was in a terrible film called "Becoming Jane" last year) Joe Anderson surely gives us a performance to remember. His good looks, damn good voice and phenomenal acting was perfect for Max's character. Playing a rebellious rich boy who moves to New York City to live a free life with his buddy Jude, Max gets the bitter taste when his dropping out of college leads to his drafting to the war in Vietnam. With much agony, when he arrives home, he is war-torn and shell-shoked. Singing unforgettable tunes to match his acting like "Hey Jude", "With a Little Help from My Friends" and "Happiness is a Warm Gun", Joe Anderson is a young talent on the rise. With few movies, he'll just get better and better. WOW...one was was so brilliant already!!!

Last years winner: "Dreamgirls" - EDDIE MURPHY
