I disagree. Zeta-Jones (although very deserving of her Oscar) is very clearly the co-lead of Chicago. The whole musical is about Roxie and Velma (I mean the Nowadays number literally recognises that) and unlike Stone and Weisz, Zeta-Jones actually competed in Lead at a major awards ceremony.

FYC OSCARS : PROMISING YOUNG WOMAN IN ALL CATEGORIES (ESP. ACTRESS – Carey Mulligan AND ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY — EMERALD FENNELL), VANESSA KIRBY FOR "PIECES OF A WOMAN", ESSIE DAVIS FOR "BABYTEETH"

Strictly based on performances, I probably would’ve voted for Stone/Weisz even though I think Stone was the true lead of THE FAVOURITE. I think Weisz was BARELY supporting.

I did vote for Pacino/Pesci but I strongly considered Harrelson/Rockwell.

I also want to give a shoutout to Burstyn/Leachman for THE LAST PICTURE SHOW.

Stone should have been Lead for The Favourite but given that she was campaigned and nominated in Supporting I think it’s fair to include her and Weisz in this poll.

I’m curious if it’s a hot take for me to say I preferred Burstyn?

Chastain and Spencer were great in The Help although Bryce Dallas Howard also deserved a nomination!

Al Pacino and Joe Pesci gave acting masterclasses, Pesci should’ve won the oscar.

The Help may not have aged well, but Spencer and Chastain remain immortal.

My vote is for two The Favourite actresses.

The Irishman and Almost Famous pair runner ups!

Yeahhh, Stone/Weisz. “The Favourite” is the best film of this lot, and even though I think Stone was the only lead, I’ll defer to how the Academy nominated them.

Voted for #2 choice and the only pair I see listed as both being win-worthy, which is Adams/Leo.

I wish Stone hadn’t won for La La Land… She would have then probably been campaigned and nominated as a lead for The Favourite. She may have even won and what a glorious win it would have been 😭

The Irishman definitely. Of the nominees, Pesci should have won….
