A Woman Robbed: Marlene Dietrich and Anna Paquin

Listen to this PREVIEW of the 35th 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 Izzy of Be Kind Rewind about two performances from LGBTQ+ actresses that weren’t nominated for Oscars: Marlene Dietrich (“Witness for the Prosecution”) and Anna Paquin (“Margaret”).

We discuss their performances, talk about why they weren’t nominated, and reveal whether we would have nominated them.
