Oscar Nominations for Best Actress

 

None of the five women nominated for the best actress at this year's Oscars appear in any of the ten nominations for best film. How strange, and how disappointing. Here they are:

Jessica Chastain is a big favourite to win for The Eyes of Tammy Faye.


But I preferred Penelope Cruz in Parallel Mothers.

I could not bring myself to see Kristen Stewart in Spencer.

Amazon's Being the Ricardos did not have a general release so Nicole Kidman should not even be nominated.

Same for Olivia Colman in The Lost Daughter. 

And even more strange, none of the actresses above are nominated for Leading Actress at the BAFTA's. Those are:

Lady Gaga for House of Gucci

Alana Haim for Licorice Pizza

Emilia Jones for CODA

Renate Reinsve for The Worst Person In The World

Joanna Scanlon for After Love

Tessa Thomson for Passing
