Show Notes
This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes Izzy from the Be Kind Rewind YouTube channel to discuss the 1936 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Luise Rainer won for her performance in "The Great Ziegfeld," beating Irene Dunne in "Theodora Goes Wild," Gladys George in "Valiant Is the Word for Carrie," Carole Lombard in "My Man Godfrey," and Norma Shearer in "Romeo and Juliet." We discuss all of these performances and discuss why the confirmed runner-up was the runner-up.
