Apparently a 27%er is defined as a traditionally supporting actor who makes the films they're in seem at least 27% better just by them being in it. The likes of William H Macy, Ed Harris, Alan Arkin and John C Reilly etc. Mines Paul Giamatti although he's tending to get more lead roles now I think he's brilliant in everything he does especially Pig Vomit in Private Parts.

Not sure if Defoe would rank as a regular 'supporting actor', but he was in Life Aquatic and imho completely stole the film. Life Aquatic has received some negative comment-not as good as previous Anderson films etc. Personally, I loved it, but it would have lost something if Defoe had not played Klaus so brilliantly.

Mine would be a toss-up between Giamatti and Oliver Platt (of Bulworth and A Time To Kill). |

Timothy Spall.
And (but this is just in my opinion) Ben Wishaw.

He's good -- I've especially liked him in stuff he's done with Mike Leigh. ( Life Is Sweet is my favorite.) Nobody's mentioned Philip Seymour Hoffman yet, but he's another one I like. |

Hell yeah, PSH is amazing. He's more of a headliner these days though, since Capote.
