1977 Best Actress (feat. Chelsea Eichholz)


This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes back podcaster and editor Chelsea Eichholz to discuss the 1977 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Diane Keaton won for her performance in “Annie Hall,” beating Anne Bancroft and Shirley MacLaine in “The Turning Point,” Jane Fonda in “Julia,” and Marsha Mason in “The Goodbye Girl.” We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Keaton.
