“OSCAR IS ALIVE, OSCAR IS ALIVE!…

…OH, This whole house is going to be full of romance, OOOH, I AM GOING TO PUT ON MY LIBERACE RECORDS!”

I asked fracking ages ago who you felt deserved the Best Actress Oscar back in 1990.
And the results are in

5) With 0% of the votes we have Julia Roberts – “Pretty Woman”

Tied

5) With 0% of the votes we have Joanne Woodward – “Mr. And Mrs. Bridge”

3) With 13% of the votes we have Meryl Streep – “Postcards From The Edge”

2) With 29% of the votes we have Angelica Huston – “The Grifters”

1) With a 58% we have Kathy Bates – “Misery”

Can we really complain with Annie Wilkes getting a nomination? We all sat up took notice and fear the creation, then have spent the next 18 years mimicking her.

"Oh, now Wally, give me a bag of that F-in' pig feed, and a pound of that bitchly cow corn"? At the bank do I say, "Oh, Mrs. Malenger, here is one big bastard of a check, now give me some of your Christ-ing money!"

Well Done Kathy, and Oscar thought you deserved it too. And you have not faded since your win.
You have made well over 40 movies. This year alone you have four coming out as well as possible your fourth Oscar Nomination for “Revolutionary Road”
Go Kathy!
