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

As of the selected ranking year, Melanie Griffith and Dustin Hoffman form a comparison shaped more by career pattern than by any single credit. Commercial scale is another meaningful divider, with the career domestic box office measure giving Dustin Hoffman the larger theatrical footprint.

The biggest-hit category sharpens the box office contrast, especially because Dustin Hoffman's leading film creates the stronger single-release benchmark. The comparison therefore points leans toward Dustin Hoffman, with the most meaningful separation coming from the highlighted career measures.
