Hunt was the only American in the race(sometimes that helps, look at Marissa Tomei) and benefitted from too many things going against her competition: Dench's role was somewhat overshadowed by Conelly's role and Mrs. Brown had no Oscar support, Bonham-Carter's performance was probably too subtle for Oscar voters and they thought she'd have other chances in the near future, Winslet was hurt by Titanic being honored in so many other categories and Stuart had the better chance at gaining an acting win then she did and it was still only her second nomination and she was 22, Christie had no chance what so ever of winning. <br /><br />I personally feel McDormand's win was less about her body of work, and more based on the popularity of her performance and film and yes, she was more well known then Blethyn. joe burnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01987519630654592530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988055139916566317.post-28072267223675542492017-07-26T09:10:13.591-07:002017-07-26T09:10:13.591-07:00

Hunt and Pa...So with these group of ladies I think <br />Hunt and Paltrow both won because of being popular and campaigning. They both beat out better actresses, but I think since , Paltrow has shown she is a fine actress and Hunt has never been that bad of a blemish. <br />Sarandon , Mcdormand, Roberts , Kidman, Mirren all are the women who were honored for their body of work , they may have been the most deserving or not , they won because it was their time. <br />Wistherspoon, Cottilard both fill the young and popular category , they were both super buzzed and super popular, I think that Cottiard was far more deserving thus its more favorably looked back upon. <br />Now Berry – I don’t think she was the best in that year , But I do think she needed to win, we needed to have an African American woman win. It was shameful we hadn’t yet had one. She did a good job at the right time and she was awarded. I think she deserved to be in the top five even if personally she wasn’t my number 1 pick but with history as it was I am happy with her win. <br />Andrew Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12471897661958522766noreply@blogger.com
