1973 Best Actress (feat. Andrew Carden)
This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes back writer Andrew Carden to discuss the 1973 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Glenda Jackson won for her performance in “A Touch of Class,” beating Ellen Burstyn in “The Exorcist,” Marsha Mason in “Cinderella Liberty,” Barbra Streisand in “The Way We Were,” and Joanne Woodward in “Summer Wishes, Winter Dreams.” We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Jackson.
