Mickey Rourke (aged 55 in 2008) The Wrestler
This performance was incredible, as the character had a number of struggles both physically and emotionally: a professional wrestler comes to terms with the fact that he's aging in a body he's abused for years. He tries to live a normal life while he strives to find love, as well as reconcile with his estranged daughter.
