Also, how is it possible that I watched every Oscar ceremony of the 90s and yet have never heard of Tom & Viv?

maybe excluded on a similar yet reverse basis of a lifetime achievement award?

no she was snubbed for to die for also (and arguably for eyes wide shut), and then suddenly post divorce oscar couldn't get enough of her.

Nah, most shamefully missing is Pam Grier, as mentioned above.

I see. Do not remember hearing about her or the movie at all at the time.

Angelica Huston for the Grifters. I like a lot of these actresses, but not in these parts they were nominated for.

btw I chose that photo in the hopes that one of their agents will get the bright idea to cast Irons, Whoopi, Bates, and Pesci.

They'll probably instead get Nicholson, Hunt, Basinger and Williams together instead.

There are a few I liked, but the only two I'd vote for would be McDormand in Fargo or Jodie Foster in Silence of the Lambs. If I could add one name it would be Pam Grier in Jackie Brown.

I haven't seen Shadowlands but I'm tempted to vote for Debra Winger because Debra Winger. Still, I gotta go with Marge Gunderson.

i haven't seen quite a few of these mike leigh and miramaxers
Frances McDormand is easily the best thing about Fargo, and she's onscreen for (guessing) 25 minutes.

Huston is third on this list, Irons second on the Best Actor one. So 1990 was the year, eh.
― lumber up, limbaugh down (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 20 October 2011 00:46 (twelve years ago) link
Well, in this case 1996 was. Rightly.

I categorized these. I learned in social media that Kathy Bates has her partisans.

A fun performance in a fun movie, I'd say, but I haven't seen it since the 90s.
