10 Supporting Actors Who Totally Stole The Movie

10. Judd Hirsch - The Fabelmans

Steven Spielberg's recent semi-autobiographical venture The Fabelmans features plenty of standout moments from a fine collection of actors.

Paul Dano does well as the well-meaning father, Michelle Williams absolutely dazzles as the eccentric mother, but the performance that will stick with you the longest after the credits have rolled has got to be that of Judd Hirsch as Uncle Boris.

The great-uncle of main character Sammy, Boris is a successful circus performer who comes to visit the family in the wake of his sister's death. Whilst sharing a room with Sammy, this mad old man gives a whirlwind speech about the cost of pursuing one's passion for art.

The veteran Hirsch is all over the place in this scene and that's not a bad thing. His erratic delivery corresponds perfectly to the highs and lows of a life in the performing arts.

Inspiring, unsettling, and funny all at once, Hirsh not only steals the scene but pretty much the entire movie as well.

Honestly, if Spielberg ever wants to make a prequel about Boris' early days in the circus, he's got our ticket money.
