A Woman Robbed: Deborah Kerr and Joan Crawford
Listen to this PREVIEW of the 16th 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 Matt Duffy about two performances of the ’60s that weren’t nominated for Best Actress at the Oscars: Deborah Kerr (“The Innocents”) and Joan Crawford (“What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?”).
We discuss their performances, talk about why they came up short, and reveal whether we would have nominated them.
