The nominees are:

Philip Seymour Hoffman in “Charlie Wilson’s War”

Hal Holbrook in “Into the Wild”
Tom Wilkinson in “Michael Clayton”

Covert picks: Javier Bardem, “No Country for Old Men.” Bardem turns the role of a baleful hit man into doom incarnate. In every scene, he cranks the gauge from churning anxiety to inhuman terror.
