In a year blessed with topnotch acting in quite a number of noteworthy films, here are the five indelible performances that deserve the highest commendation.
InterAksyon presents the top 5 movie performances of 2012:
?
THE CAST OF ?POSAS?
Lawrence Fajardo?s taut direction of Zig Carlo Dulay?s fat-free script ? a breathless day-in-the-life procedural about corruption in the police force and the making of an ?official? partner in crime out of a petty thief ? is a model of precise filmmaking.
So are the on-point, life-like performances of the entire cast, from the leads (Nico Antonio as a Quiapo snatcher and Art Acuna as chief of police) to the supporting players (Bangs Garcia as the victim of the theft, and Nor Domingo and Jake Macapagal as police officers), down to the guests and bit players. In a year filled with excellent ensemble acting work (?Aparisyon?, ?Sta. Nina?, ?Mga Munting Lihim?, ?I Do Bidoo?), ?Posas? gets the badge of honor as the finest.

RHIAN RAMOS, ?SOSSY PROBLEMS?
She was very good in the title role in last year?s ?My Kontrabida Girl?. This year she was even better ? sharper and punchier but cooler ? as a bossy spoiled brat in ?Sossy Problems?, about a barkada of clueless ultra rich girls who find a mission outside of themselves when their beloved village country club gets threatened to be torn down to give way to a mall.
The role was practically begging for a kind of go-to-town indulgence. Rhian did not go there. Instead she imbued the character with a playful charm and an unforced headiness that made it easy for viewers to understand why she is the acknowledged leader of this stillettoed pack. And why she is probably the finest young actress in comedy around.
?
ANTHONY FALCON, ?REQUIEME!?
How do you go head to head and toe to toe with the simmering soulfulness and soft-edged intensity of Shamaine Buencamino? If you?re newcomer Anthony Falcon, you don?t. You play it the other way ? sharp, saucy, and steely. It?s nothing short of genius.
For while the performance is one of chilly, icy coolness on the surface, Anthony as Joanna, a runaway son, a social outcast, and would-be transsexual, is also able to fully locate the bruised soul, the wounded heart, and the zest for life in this black comedy about burying the dearly beloved, Pinoy-style.
?
EDDIE GARCIA, ?BWAKAW?
This year Manoy played manay and he was nothing short of fabulous. But not in a showy, put-out-all-the-stops kind of way.
As Rene ? a brusko of a man who embraces his sexuality and comes out of the closet very late in life with his canine BFF, by his side, indeed in what the character sees as his twilight years ? Eddie is elegantly funny and sophisticatedly soulful in a portrayal brimming with scrappy wit, sardonic humor, and sensitive heart.
This lovely and loving performance is the opposite of a doggone work.
?
NORA AUNOR, ?THY WOMB?
Thirty years after ?Himala?, Nora Aunor gives another performance for the ages. As Shaleha, a barren Badjao wife who goes on a mission to find a woman who could and would give her beloved husband a biological child, is hypnotically still, bracingly intelligent, and devastatingly emotional, often all at once and without uttering a single word. She is, in a word, divine in what is the most hauntingly sublime piece of acting in all of Philippine cinema not only this year but in the last 30 years.
