Great performances that got overshadowed.

What are some great performances that get overshadowed by another actor’s iconic performance?

I was rewatching The Dark Knight, and I think Aaron Eckhart gives a really great performance. He has to go through so many emotions and his character changes dramatically throughout the movie, and he pulls it off. From charismatic politician to unhinged vigilante to psychopath. However, his performance gets overshadowed by Heath giving an iconic performance.

Another example would be Geoffrey Rush in Pirates of the Caribbean. Everyone thinks Johnny when they talk about this movie, but I think Rush is the quintessential pirate. He’s the only thing that kept me from walking out of the newest one.
