This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes back Izzy from Be Kind Rewind to discuss the 1985 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Geraldine Page won for her performance in "The Trip to Bountiful," beating Anne Bancroft in "Agnes of God," Whoopi Goldberg in "The Color Purple," Jessica Lange in "Sweet Dreams," and Meryl Streep in "Out of Africa."
