Show Notes
This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes Sophia Ciminello from the Oscar Wild podcast to discuss the 1937 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Luise Rainer won for her performance in "The Good Earth," beating Irene Dunne in "The Awful Truth," Greta Garbo in "Camille," Janet Gaynor in "A Star Is Born," and Barbara Stanwyck in "Stella Dallas." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Rainer.
