9. Natalie Portman in Black Swan (2010)

Natalie Portman turned Black Swan into a haunting character study. The film’s surreal elements could have felt excessive, but her portrayal of Nina grounded the story. Portman showed Nina’s fragility, ambition, and unraveling mind with intense focus. She brought both physical and emotional transformation to the role. Her performance made Nina’s descent into madness gripping to watch. Portman’s work became the core of the film and made it an unforgettable exploration of obsession and identity.
