Ep. 65 - 1993 Emma Thompson
The year is 1993 and the nominees are: 1. Susan Sarandon - Lorenzo’s Oil 2. Emma Thompson - Howards End 3. Michelle Pfeiffer - Love Field 4. Catherine Deneuve - Indochine 5. Mary McDonnell - Passion Fish - In 1993 Emma Thompson was nominated for, and won, every single competitive acting award for Howards End. If you’ve listened to this podcast before you know how much this movie bored me. This will shock and amaze you but I have become a Howards End enthusiast after this episode. Other nominees included Michelle Pfeiffer in Love Field and Catherine Deneuve in Indochine. They were unlikely to take home the prize that evening. Thompson’s biggest competition was likely Susan Sarandon in Lorenzo’s Oil and Mary McDonnell in Passion Fish. This was a fun episode to discuss! Join host Kyle Brownrigg with guest host Josh Murray as they discuss.
