1993 Best Actress (feat. Josh Parham)
This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes back writer and podcaster Josh Parham to discuss the 1993 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Holly Hunter won for her performance in “The Piano,” beating Angela Bassett in “What’s Love Got to Do with It,” Stockard Channing in “Six Degrees of Separation,” Emma Thompson in “The Remains of the Day,” and Debra Winger in “Shadowlands.” We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Hunter.
