Until Now, i still Believe that Rosemund Pike Should've won instead of Juliane Moore

[@Laramaria2]

Same...

[@lostinthereel]

THIS! Rosamund Pike literally blew me away in Gone Girl. Still one of my favorite performances of all time. Although I love Julianne, that performance has kind of been lost in time😊

[@GeorgiiAird]

Basically anyone not named Felicia Jones should’ve won over Julianne’s career Oscar

[@IsaacDolido]

Same sis.

[@Milos-sj6ir]

Agreed. She was literally the character I imagined while reading the book. Although, the movie itself wasn't one of Fincher's best. So, I'm glad they gave it to Julianne.

[@singstreetcar5881]

Brie larson was a respected indie actress back then. Short term 12 was one of the greatest indie movies of all time and it was snubbed. Every actor from this movie went on to have a successful career, rami malik, lakeith stanfield, Stephanie Beatrice, caitlyn denveer etc

[@GeorgiiAird]

such a shame she gained a very much negative aura around her persona by the time of winning/post-oscar stage in her career; she won a very prestigious Best Actress for Short Term 12 at auteur Locarno Film Festival (under Yorgos Lanthimos’ presidency in the jury) She’s as lowly crawling back to her acting skills, Lessons in Chemistry recently proved that. But this win still rubs me off, despite the craziness around the timely topic and much needed subject back in 2015, that overshadowed the quality of her borderline supporting performance.

[@amparonarbona5142]

​@@GeorgiiAirdright? She doesn't deserve that hate. Hopefully she can turn her career (and image) around

[@GeorgiiAird]

@@amparonarbona5142 totally. her Cannes jury entrée came as a bit or surprise, she’s killing her fashion contract and looks like vying for a decent revival of her craft. i must admit I miss old indie gal Brie (United States of Tara and her character’s complexity glued me when the show was falling apart after the first season), so we’re not doomed. unfortunately, the history of winning Oscars for wrong roles (applies to almost 90% of the winners) and never ending who deserves what discourse will be forever on point

Your first and last choices match mine. Without question, Portman is/was the best. And as much as I like Moore, she won for the wrong film. I ranked Zellweger higher, but I know the film (and her performance) divided audiences.

[@LinkMarioSamus]

I did like Portman's performance in Black Swan a lot but I always got the impression said performance was divisive, though it could just be residual hype backlash towards the movie that has reduced as it got older. For the record I thought it was a 7-8/10 movie.

[@wotan10950]

I love Meryl, and she deserves all the reverence. Having said that, I thought her role as Margaret Thatcher was one of her weakest. She could have won for so many others: Doubt, Prada, A Cry in the Dark, Out of Africa, many others. It’s like Bette Davis believing she deserved an Oscar for the execrable Baby Jane. She should’ve won for All About Eve or many others. And handing an Oscar to the laughable Sandra Bullock? She’s a nice screen presence, but a great actress? Nope. And poor Glen - everyone says Fatal Attraction, but forgets the extraordinary, and much finer, Albert Nobbs.

[@alejandrosalicrup6449]

She shouldn’t win an Oscar for this role

Of the performances I've seen: Natalie Portman Frances McDormand Cate Blanchett Julianne Moore (Though I would have given it to Rosamund Pike) Brie Larson Jennifer Lawrence (Though I would have given it to Jessica Chastain) I haven't seen Emma Stone in La La Land, but I'm willing to bet I still would have given the Oscar to Amy Adams in Arrival.

1. Natalie Portman - Black Swan (2011) 2. Cate Blanchett - Blue Jasmine (2013) 3. Olivia Colman - The Favourite (2018) 4. Frances McDormand - Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) 5. Jennifer Lawrence - Silver Linings Playbook (2012) 6. Emma Stone - La La Land (2016) 7. Brie Larson - Room (2015) 8. Julianne Moore - Still Alice (2014) 9. Renée Zellweger - Judy (2019) 10.

Great video, Brian! Agree with the top 2 for sure. I would have Meryl and Julianne at least higher than JLaw. It's still hard to look at Olivia Colman's very deserved win without feeling sad for Glenn, who was incredibly fantastic and would have been deserving. And I love Reneé in Judy, such an endearing and heartfelt performance ❤

[@tyrannosaurusburke]

2010 was the year that Claire Danes starred in "Temple Grandin". If "Temple Grandin" had been released to theaters, not on HBO, Danes would have been nominated for Best Actress at the Academy Awards that year, and Natalie Portman may have been in trouble.

[@giovannyespinoza6013]

My top: 10. Meryl Streep for The Iron Lady (my choice: Viola Davis for the help or Rooney Mara for the girl with the dragon tattoo or Michelle Williams for my week with Marilyn) 9. Jennifer Lawrence for Silver Linings Playbook (my choice: Emmanuelle Riva for Amour or Jessica Chastain for Zero Dark Thirty) 8. Emma Stone for La La Land (my choice: Isabelle Huppert for Elle and Natalie Portman for Jackie, and the non nominated Amy Adams for arrival) 7. Julianne Moore for Still Alice (my choice: I like her win but I would have preferred to see Rosamund Pike winning for gone girl) 6. Renee Zellweger for Judy (I like her win, but Lupita Nyongo should have been nominated for Us) 5. Brie Larson for Room (I love her win, and I think people should watch 45 Years, Charlotte Rampling is freaking amazing. Also, Saoirse Ronan (Brooklyn) and Cate Blanchett (Carol) were amazing choices) 4. Frances McDormand for Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri (I like her win but my choice is Sally Hawkins for the shape of water and Margot Robbier for I, Tonya) 3. Olivia Colman (I really love her win, and i like it was not expected, I really think Glenn Close was finally winning and for a very great performance) 2. Natalie Portman (one of the greats wins of the century and in the category) 1. Cate Blanchett (even though I do not love Still Alice, it is a weak movie of Woody Allen. But, Cate Blanchett sells the movie and the screenplay really helps her)

[@petrilio]

Very much agree with the list.

[@davedavis8786]

Normally I try to judge the performance and not the movie, but watching this video I find it hard to do so, and I understand Brian's comments about Steep winning for The Iron Lady. I really loved The Silver Linings Playbook so I was very happy when Lawrence won that year. I did not like Black Swan, and I would have preferred it if Annette Bening had won that year. I wanted Cynthia Erivo to win for Harriet, and I don't know why she didn't get more love for great work in a tribute to an American heroine. Anyway, if I were making this list and considered the performance first but also the movie, I'd probably have Brie Larson at the top and Renee Zellweger at the bottom.

[@marrmart7690]

Must the winer win not for one resion Must win for performance and the role and the supject of script Judy was bad script

[@heymistercarter.]

Julianne Moore winning for Still Alice almost makes me wonder if something similar will happen to another redhead actress who's been nominated a bunch of times (and is long overdue for a win): Amy Adams. Like, I can imagine her sweeping the season one year for a performance that's good, but one you'll look back on and say that any of her other nominations (and even films she didn't get nominated for *cough* ARRIVAL *cough*) were more deserving than the one she won for.

[@robfuzz]

Gosh, there are SO MANY actresses who deserve to finally win an Oscar. Not everyone gets one. I still wish Sigourney Weaver would get one. I think Glenn Close should've won for Dangerous Liaisons (and if voters knew they'd be giving Jodie one a few years later maybe they would have thrown it to Close.) Back in the '82 I wanted Marsha Mason to win for Only When I Laugh but there was no way she would've beaten Hepburn. I wanted Whoopi and Geraldine Page to tie in '86. This is why we make these videos cause there's lots to talk about!

[@jayiijay]

I too thought Marsha Mason should have won for Only When I Laugh. I don't think Hepburn should even have been nominated, and was shocked when she beat either of the two favorites Diane Keaton and Meryl Streep. Lots of fine performances who IMO were much finer than great Kate, including Faye Dunaway for Mommie Dearest, Sissy Spacek for Raggedy Man, Bernadette Peters for Pennies from Heaven, Kathleen Turner for Body Heat, and Sally Field for Absence of Malice. And if Glenda Jackson was eligible for Stevie, I actually would have given her the win (still don't know if she was eligible for that film in 1978 or 1981 or neither!). Not a fan of Jackson's two victories, especially class, but amazing in Steve, as was Mona Washbourne in support.

The Favourite, honestly, I was thinking Rachel Weisz should get position of Leading Actress rather than Supporting Actress. She did everything in that film, including falling from horses while Colman played with rabbits.

I love it when you make these kinds of videos ! My personal ranking : 10. Meryl Streep for "The Iron Lady" (Rooney Mara should've won for "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo") 9. Renée Zelwegger for "Judy" (Scarlet Johansson should've won for "Marriage Story") 8. Julianne Moore for "Still Alice" (Rosamund Pike should've won for "Gone Girl" - literally one of my favourite performances EVER) 7. Brie Larson for "Room" (Cate Blanchett should've won for "Carol") 6. Frances McDormand for "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" (I should rewatch this one) 5. Jennifer Lawrence for "Silver Linings Playbook" 4. Emma Stone for "La La Land" 3. Olivia Colman for "The Favourite" 2. Cate Blanchett for "Blue Jasmine" 1. Natalie Portman for "Black Swan" (perfection)

Still Alice feel like more like the kind of performance that you win and Gone Girl is not the type of performance that wins. Still Alice could had been nominated for best supporting actress for Kristen Stewart,her performance was so freaking good. Meryl Streep in The Iron Lady is great but the movie as a whole is a not good movie.

Im not an expert by any stretch of the imagination, but I have to disagree with you about The Iron Lady. Meryl Streep was just phenomenal in that movie. Much love and respect to her fellow nominees, but Meryl deserved every accolade she received for Iron Lady.

The fact that Meryl Streep didn’t win for the Devil wears Prada is insane

Best actress is probably the most attentive category than best actor
