I don't love the performance the way others do, but she is certainly brilliant. <br /><br />I think Jones, Moreno, Duke, Kedrova (Have you seen her? She's amazing!), Dennis, Parsons (Though a rewatch is needed to completely confirm my thoughts) are all very strong to amazing performances. I haven't seen Rutherford and Hawn though. I've watched Ruth Gordon's performance on youtube, but never in the context of the film. I'll just say that I was not impressed with her, but you never know until you rewatch! <br /><br />Winters is the only rotten apple. I'll rewatch her when I finish Best Actress 1965, but overall, her work is very one dimensional and disappointing to me. Fritz was exactly right when he said she didn't understand the character. joe burnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01987519630654592530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8706359762283384081.post-30807806522439066702014-01-20T08:41:55.924-08:002014-01-20T08:41:55.924-08:00Allen: Yes I have!

Of the 10 perfs I've reviewed so far only 4 were nomination worthy. And the rest I've seen in this decade in general weren't great.<br /><br />Oh, and when I said in a stronger year Sandy wouldn't win, I meant personally not for the Academy. She'd win in many years with them, it's a very flashy perf. :DDerek Bowmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13276278383887354106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8706359762283384081.post-63415974010537681062014-01-20T02:10:57.548-08:002014-01-20T02:10:57.548-08:00Well, Sandy would've won in '67... or '...Well, Sandy would've won in '67... or '65. :P<br /><br />was that a weaker decade? <br />M.Rutherford ugh.<br />haven't seen Alexis Zorbas.<br />Ruth Gordon was good tho. :PAlex Constantinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09940311552608814201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8706359762283384081.post-83504139603671919542014-01-19T18:38:58.003-08:002014-01-19T18:38:58.003-08:00Great job!

Sandy is one of those perfs that I admire without out and out loving. In a stronger year she wouldn't win. My 2nd weakest winner so far. :)Derek Bowmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13276278383887354106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8706359762283384081.post-12250758437470795702014-01-17T23:45:46.177-08:002014-01-17T23:45:46.177-08:00The leading race of that year was just as diverse,...The leading race of that year was just as diverse, I'd say. :)<br /><br />Never knew how to really feel about Sandy.
