Reed's 'Bill Sikes' really was one of those instances of perfect casting!

It's interesting that the actors with many nominations and no wins are mostly Brits.

Peter O'Toole
Richard Burton
Deborah Kerr
Albert Finney
I think I get it with O'Toole, Burton and Finney but it's a surprise to see Kerr on the list.

Cary Grant
Peter O’Toole
Ed Harris

And Burton for Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? over Scofield for sure.
Also - Hitchcock. The other category.
