We sometimes get the delightful treat of watching a movie to notice a supporting character grab our attention and fascinate us with a riveting performance.My favorite is Val Kilmer who portrayed Doc Holiday in the western classic"Tombstone"(1993).I did enjoy Kurt Russell as Wyatt Earp.However,Val Kilmer successfully put his own magnetic spin on the character of Doc Holiday as a pompously endearing gentleman with some of the most memorable lines in western movie history,such as:I'm your huckleberry!/My hypocrisy goes only so far./Say when!(quote to instigate a gunfight)/You sweet soft Hungarian devil(Doc's girlfriend Kate)/An enchanted moment./Wyatt,I will not be pawed at!(his drunken comment to Earp when being urged not to overindulge the night life due to tuberculoses)/Look darlin it's Johnny Ringo,the fastest gun since Wild Bill they say;should I hate'em?/Very cosmopolitan!You're a daisy if ya do!(a bone fide line the real Doc used)...and more.Choose your movie,the character,and why.

I thought Renee Zellwegger completely stole Nicole Kidman's fire in "Cold Mountain". She was awesome in it.

The first time I saw "The Godfather," (probably not until the mid-90s sometime), Al Pacino/Michael Corleone stole the show. I then later found out that he won the best supporting actor. To me, he was the lead and the center of the film. But I guess everyone else saw Marlon Brando/Vito Corleone as the lead. The tragedy of Michael was just much more compelling in that at the closing of the film he became even worse than everything he detested in the beginning of the film.

No one ever steals the show from Jack Nicholson, but I thought Greg Kinnear was simply incredible as Simon Bishop in "As Good As It Gets."

The one that jumps immediately to my mind is Cuba Gooding in "Jerry Maguire."
I would even argue that Steve Carell stole "Bruce Almighty" from Jim Carrey with his brilliant "gibberish" scene.

It would have to be Vin Diseal in the fast and the furious, even though Paul Walker was the star everyone was talking about Vin's charecter Dom.
