My role as Rocky in 'They Shoot Horses, Don't They?' was just enough to beat out Nicholson's drunk lawyer in 'Easy Rider'1969
Even if Nicholson had all 'Five Easy Pieces' he still couldn't beat my General Patton in 'Patton'1970
I was able to pull through as Harry Stoner in 'Save the Tiger' even up against Nicholson's Bad Ass in 'The Last Detail'1973
Playing Harry Coombes in 'Harry and Tonto', I could outwit even the great J.J. Gittes from 'Chinatown'1974
Playing the famous playwrite Eugene O'Neil in 'Reds' wasn't enough to beat my performance as Hobson in 'Arthur'1981
My performance as Luis Molina in the indie film 'Kiss of the Spider Woman' was able to make 'Prizzi's Honor' into Prizzi's shame1985
I said greed was good in 'Wall Street' and it turns out it's true because I was able to take the win from Nicholson in 'Ironweed'1987
My wild west sheriff in 'Unforgiven' was even more dastardly than Nicholson's Colonel Jessup in 'A Few Good Men'1992
Nicholson got old in 'About Schmidt', but I stayed young in 'The Pianist' and am therefore the youngest winner of this award2002
