Whenever I see this title it always gets my blood boiling, a rare case where there was almost universal critisicm, in that Ellen Burstyn should’ve won for her incredible portrayal in “Requiem for a Dream”.
While I agree that Burstyn should have won, Roberts’ performance in that movie is exceptionally good as well.
Agreed.
