Angela Bassett was also robbed by no nomination for waiting to exhale. Her performance in that movie made me cry, get mad, laugh and feel every other range of emotion! She is a phenomenal actress!

Agreed! The Best Actress category was so weak in 1996, she could’ve easily gotten in. Bernadette’s monologue is the only scene that everyone still references.

lexi219 If you look up footage and interviews from WLGTDWI, you’ll know that Angela only had like 30 days to shoot the film on top of having a strict diet and learning the routines to mime the songs. She said there were days where she didn’t get a break at all and had to eat standing up because the producers wanted it done in time for Tina Turner’s tour that same year. While acting as a mute isn’t easy, I doubt it physically took as much out of Holly Hunter. Which is what I think Angela meant. She’s said that acting as Tina Turner is still the hardest thing she’s ever done.

I agree, Holly Hunter’s performance in The Piano was amazing so I can’t really say that Angela deserved to win over Holly because i think both performances were equally deserving and it sucked that Angela had to compete against Holly back in 1994, especially knowing how weak the Best Actress race will be in following year because Angela could have easily won back in 1995 if the studio withheld the release date for the movie.

@Ryan07_20 8 ай бұрын

Also, hollys win wasn’t a shock at all. She got the golden globe, bafta, the big 4 critics awards (she’s one of 6 actresses get all 4) and Best Actress at Cannes. The only major award she didn’t win that season was the “musical or comedy” globe award, which she wasn’t eligible for. And once Anna paquin pulled an upset and won over Winona Ryder in supporting, it was clearly going to holly.

No LMFAO. Holly Hunter dominated that award season plus Angela didn't actually sing the songs plus the Piano made more money than What's love got to do with it which is interesting considering that The Piano was an arthosue film from New Zealand and What's Love got to do with it a mainstream biopic of one of the most influential and at the time most commercially successful woman in music.
