Note: Films released during the selected year influence the following year's rankings.
By the 1990 season, the comparison is less about a single breakout moment and more about the shape of each actor's accumulated Hollywood results. Selected-year rank is the clearest ranking-side separator, with Glenn Close holding the stronger position in this snapshot.
The biggest-hit category sharpens the box office contrast, especially because Roy Scheider's leading film creates the stronger single-release benchmark. Based on the available ranking data, the balance stays evenly split without turning the result into a subjective judgment of acting quality.
