Ep. 71 - 1975 Ellen Burstyn
[ For full episode catalogue please subscribe to our Patreon at Patreon.com/BestActress ] NEW EPISODE ALERT The year is 1975 and the nominees are: 1. Valerie Perrine - Lenny 2. Faye Dunaway - Chinatown 3. Gena Rowlands - A Woman Under the Influence 4. Ellen Burstyn - Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore 5. Diahann Carroll - Claudine - In 1975 Ellen Burstyn won the Best Actress Oscar for Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore. This was arguably one of the most competitive years in Best Actress history. Each one of these nominees could have easily walked away with the award. In fact, they each won other ‘Best Actress’ awards for their respected roles leading up to the Oscars. I think for me personally it just comes down to personal taste. One of the best years to discuss! Join host Kyle Brownrigg with guest host Josh Murray as they discuss.
