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 Cláudio Alves about two performances of the 2000s that weren’t nominated for Best Actress at the Oscars: Isabelle Huppert (“The Piano Teacher”) and Uma Thurman (“Kill Bill”).

We discuss their performances, talk about why they came up short, and reveal whether we would have nominated them.
