TheSilver Bear for Best Actor (German:Silberner Bär/Bester Darsteller) was an award presented at theBerlin International Film Festival from 1956 to 2020. It was given to an actor who has delivered an outstanding performance and was chosen by the International Jury from the films in the Competition slate at the festival. Beginning with the71st Berlin International Film Festival, the award was replaced with twogender-neutral categories: theSilver Bear for Best Leading Performance and theSilver Bear for Best Supporting Performance.

At the6th Berlin International Film Festival held in 1956,Burt Lancaster was the first winner of this award for his performance inTrapeze, andElio Germano was the last winner in this category, for his role inHidden Away at the70th Berlin International Film Festival in 2020.

History

[edit]

The award was first presented in 1956 and can be for lead or supporting roles. The prize was not awarded on three occasions (1969, 1973, and 1974). In 1970, no awards were given as the festival was called off mid-way due to the controversy over the official selection film,o.k. byMichael Verhoeven, which led to the resignation of the international jury. In 2011, the entire male cast ofA Separation received the award.Sidney Poitier,Jean Gabin,Fernando Fernán Gómez, andDenzel Washington have won the most awards in this category, each winning twice.

The last of this award was given out in 2020, after which it was replaced with twogender-neutral categories,Best Leading Performance andBest Supporting Performance, the following year.
