Eight Greatest Acting Performances You've Probably Never Seen

Did you know that, on average, between 700 and 750 movies are released every year? In fact, in 2019 there were 786 films released to the general public, down from 878 in 2018.

Obviously, it's impossible to see them all. Heck, it's hard enough to see the great ones (for example, have you seen "1917?"). And if you can't see Hollywood's best, most publicized work, think of all the things you don't see. Movies that, a lot of times, have brilliant performances that outshine the films themselves.

Well, here are a few brilliant acting performances that, through the years, you may have overlooked. Maybe it was because the movie was, as they say in the biz, "underseen," or maybe the acting job was brilliant, but in a minor role. Whatever the reason, here are our Top 8 Acting Performances You've Probably Never Seen - or Noticed.
