Melonie Díaz

Film Independent named Melonie Diaz twice in its supporting actress category, in 2007 for Dito Montiel's A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints and in 2014 for Ryan Coogler's Fruitvale Station. Seven years lie between the two. Her four films here reach from 2002 to 2025, four works over twenty-three years. Fruitvale Station leads her vote with 1,435, Derek Cianfrance's Roofman of 2025 follows at 818, and Raising Victor Vargas, from 2002, holds 47. In all four she is a performer and nothing else, and the four belong to four different directors. The single catalogue entry to come after that second nomination is the one from 2025.
