Gonna start with the 20s/30s – sorry for the weird formating – I’ve saved these lists from a time when the forums of IMdB were still active and therefore some commands (like the blue-thing) do not work somewhere else. Beginning where I can complete the run (I’m still awaiting a “wow” performance from 1984)…ġ986 – Consuelo De Haviland “37’2 Le Matin aka Betty Blue”ġ990 – Dianne Wiest “Edward Scissorhands”ġ993 – Christina Ricci “Addams Family Values”Ģ001 – Kristin Scott Thomas “Gosford Park”Ģ002 – Patricia Clarkson “Far From Heaven”Ģ003 – Fenella Woolgar “Bright Young Things”Ģ004 – Corinna Harfouch “Der Untergang aka Downfall”Ģ006 – Nazan Kesal “Iklimler aka Climates”Ģ008 – Dianne Wiest “Synecdoche, New York”Ģ010 – Olivia Williams “The Ghost Writer”Ģ012 – Susan Sarandon “Jeff, Who Lives At Home”Ģ013 – Lea Seydoux “La Vie D’Adele aka Blue Is The Warmest Colour”ġ) Seeing only the winners transferred to a list, it seems that The Academy rarely has my winner in their Top 5, disappointingly…Ģ) 2018 is very much a work in progress (0/5 seen of the nominees, even if Weisz and Stone are destined to compete in Leading) – that said, I was pretty astonished by Aniston’s work and am surprised that Netflix never campaigned – especially as they were going to for Original Song anywayģ) Anyone who doesn’t pick Mo’nique for 2009 is untrustworthy in my eyes (though I’ll make allowances for people who choose any of my runner-up Top 5 – Samantha Morton in “The Messenger”, Kristin Scott Thomas in “Nowhere Boy”, Anne-Marie Duff in “Nowhere Boy” or Angeliki Papoulia in “Kynodontas aka Dogtooth”
