A Woman Robbed: Marilyn Monroe and Barbra Streisand
Listen to this PREVIEW of the 4th 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 Cláudio Alves about Marilyn Monroe (“Some Like It Hot”) and Barbra Streisand (“A Star Is Born”), who won Golden Globes for Best Actress in a Comedy or Musical but weren’t even nominated at the Oscars.
We discuss their performances, talk about why they came up short, and reveal whether we would have nominated them.
