Tess Harper?! That would’ve been stunning, given she does virtually nothing in that film. I would think Hannah, Woody Allen, Bob Hoskins, Kathleen Turner, Tom Berenger and Maggie Smith.

I guessed Tess Harper out of desperation plust she was overlooked for Tender Mercies. I was going to say Maggie Smith but would they have given her a third? I guess maybe. I don’t particularly remember Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio too well and Piper Laurie was barely in Children of a Lesser God (although I guess she could have won a makeup award.)

From Vincent Canby in the New York Times…

Best supporting actress. The nominees are Tess Harper, ”Crimes of the Heart”; Piper Laurie, ”Children of a Lesser God”; Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, ”The Color of Money”; Maggie Smith, ”A Room With a View”; Dianne Wiest, ”Hannah and Her Sisters.”

This would seem to be a three-way race among Miss Mastrantonio, Miss Smith and Miss Wiest. As much as I admire Miss Wiest, I can’t understand how she could be nominated without nominations also going to her ”Hannah” co-supporting stars (if that’s what they are), Mia Farrow and Barbara Hershey. (And if Miss Wiest is to be classified as a supporting actress instead of a star of ”Hannah,” what would you call the remarkable Maureen O’Sullivan in the same film – a supporting supporting actress?) Miss Smith, already the winner of a best-actress Oscar (”The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie”) and one as best supporting actress (”California Suite”), is certainly deserving, as is Miss Wiest. If, by chance, ”Hannah” wins the best picture Oscar, Miss Smith will be given her award for ”Room” – voters like to spread their cheer around. If it’s the other way around and ”Room” wins as best picture, Miss Wiest will get it for ”Hannah.”

My preference is Miss Mastrantonio for the sheer force of her new screen presence in ”The Color of Money.” The winner will be Miss Smith.

Canby’s analysis is odd. Wiest was the total stand out in Hannah.

Hoskins and Smith were the runner-ups, fore sure.

Of the Hannah ladies, I actually most like Hershey. Can’t argue with the Wiest win, though.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Room With A View was runner up in Picture/Director.

Supporting Actor is the hardest. Could be any of them.
