Listen to this PREVIEW of the 7th episode of A Woman Robbed, a special bonus series you can hear on the And the Runner-Up Is Patreon exclusive feed!
A Woman Robbed is a series in which Kevin is joined by a special guest in discussing women who had significant Oscar buzz heading into the nominations but were ultimately robbed/snubbed/omitted from the Best Actress lineup. In this episode, Kevin speaks with Joyce Eng about Michelle Pfeiffer ("Batman Returns") and Nicole Kidman ("The Others"), who earned Best Actress nominations for other films released in those years.
We discuss their performances, talk about why they came up short, and reveal whether we would have nominated them.
