- Hanks is proposed as the deserved Oscar winner over actual winner Hoffman; the full nominee field is Hoffman for Rain Man, Hackman for Mississippi Burning, Hanks for Big, Olmos for Stand and Deliver and von Sydow for Pelle the Conqueror. Malkovich in Dangerous Liaisons is an additional overlooked possibility.
- Hanks is the unanimous hypothetical Oscar recipient; Marshall's direction or screenplay are alternatives only if Hanks is excluded.
