100000. Harvey Weinstein, Hskaespeare in Loev, just terrible.

 

Man the 90s. So many missed opportunities. f the Oscars just pick the right winners with the actual best performances, this would’ve been the strongest decade of best actress winners in history. I mean,

Fernanda Montenegro, Central Station

Emily Watson, Breaking The Waves

Meryl Streep, The Bridges of Madison County

Kate Winslet, Titanic (bully me… lol)

Pam Grier, Jackie Brown

Nicole Kidman, To Die For/Eyes Wide Shut

Sharon Stone, Casino

Elisabeth Shue, Leaving Las Vegas

Stockard Channing, Six Degrees of Separation

Angela Bassett, What’s Love Got To Do With It

Brenda Blethyn, Secret & Lies

Susan Sarandon & Geena Davis, Thelma & Louise
