It&#8217;s been a very tough year for so many reasons, but that isn&#8217;t to say there haven&#8217;t been some bright points. It&#8217;s actors that make the movies we love so compelling. Even with breathtaking vistas, and amazing cinematography, without that human connection films would be boring. It&#8217;s people, the empathy machine, that keeps us interested in film. This week on CinemaJaw Matt K and Ry the Movie Guy look back on the year in film once again, and this time pick out the Top 5 Performances of 2020.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4436\" src=\"https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/498-cover-mark-dujsik.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/498-cover-mark-dujsik.png 1080w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/498-cover-mark-dujsik-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/498-cover-mark-dujsik-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/498-cover-mark-dujsik-1024x576.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/>Joining them is perhaps the most prolific film critic in existence.\u00a0Mark Dujsik has been writing about film since 2001. He is the sole writer, editor, and publisher of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.markreviewsmovies.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mark Reviews Movies<\/a>. He has been a member of the Chicago Film Critics Association since 2006 and the Online Film Critics Society since 2002. You can follow him on Twitter at <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/markreviews\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@markreviews<\/a>. This guy watches and reviews an impressive number (well into the hundreds) of films each year, but somehow CinemaJaw managed to find his one 2020 blindspot! You&#8217;ll have to listen to hear what it was.<\/p>\n<p>This is our penultimate stop on our 2020 wrap up.
