You also have to look at it in relation to the other performances done that year. I can't quite remember who was nominated that year, but I think it was a fairly weak year in terms of powerhouse performances. I think he really gave a strong heartbreaking performance in The Truman Show, and maybe it wouldn't have won the Oscar... I really do think it deserved a nomination.

I agree Edward Norton and Tom Hanks were wonderful in their performances that year... (actually I think it was when he did Man on the Moon that it was a weaker year.) I admit though I haven't seen the other 3 performances from that year that were nominated. Yeah, let's just agree to disagree on this one. I personally think the Academy get it wrong a LOT and not just with Jim... but that's another story! lol!
