This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes back Gold Derby senior editor Joyce Eng to discuss the 1998 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Gwyneth Paltrow won for her performance in "Shakespeare in Love," beating Cate Blanchett in "Elizabeth," Fernanda Montenegro in "Central Station," Meryl Streep in "One True Thing," and Emily Watson in "Hilary and Jackie."
