All I know is that year was traumatic because I wanted and needed Isabelle Huppert to win the Oscar and they gave it to Emma Stone instead ): I kind of new they would but I was prayin’ and keeping all my fingers crossed! It was one of the biggest disappointments ever. And yes, I liked Emma Stone’s performance, but Isabelle is the QUEEN!
