Best Supporting Actor 1968-1977

Once again some excellent choices albeit mostly one-off great ones from long time character actors.

De Niro, one of the greatest lead actors of the decade, is a ringer here. He was the lead in his scenes in Godfather II if not the film itself. A vote for just about anyone else would be an excellent representative of the fine work done by all these wonderful actors. Mine goes to Ben Johnson for his heartbreaking performance in The Last Picture Show.
