According to the Brits, Jack Nicholson voted best performance ever!!

If it wasn't for the one and only Jack Nicholson that beat off tough competition like De Nior, Pacino and Barndon; then it would've been unbelievable!"Total Film" revealed its top 200 greatest movie performances of all time, and Jack Nicholson flew and landed on the top with his rebel hero performance in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Next" production of 1975. In this film directed by Milos Foreman, Nicholson plays the role of "McMurphy' who tried to escape labor duties in prison by pleading insanity, but then is submitted into a ward of the mentally unstable. McMurphy finds himself with his inmates under the oppression and degradation of the institution leaders, so he leads a rebellious stand against them. Winning five Oscars, including Best Actor, Director and Picture, it seems that the Nest is still doing Nicholson favours. As for his stiff competition that landed safe and sound in the 2nd place, it was Robert De Niro for his inspirational role as Jake La Motta in "Raging Bull" produced in 1980 and 3rd Place was for Daniel Day-Lewis for his role in the 2007 film "There will be Blood"."The God Father" saved the 4th spot for Al Pacino when he played Michael Corleone in the 2nd part in 1974.
