Note: Films released during the selected year influence the following year's rankings.

Commercial scale is another meaningful divider, with the career domestic box office measure giving Bill Murray the larger theatrical footprint. From a historical perspective, the matchup leans toward Glenn Close and remains tied to the selected ranking season.
