Ryan Gosling (3)- I’ll take Gosling’s 1-2 punch in La La Land and Blade Runner 2049 over any actor’s 1-2 punch in the last five years. Take a look—but nobody had given performances on that level

Best Actors in the World- 2017
Leonardo Dicaprio (1)- One year removed from the revenant he’s still clearly the king. He hasn’t started shooting anything new and had nothing in both 2016 and 2014… hopefully he’s not following DDL’s “less is more”
