Show Notes
This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes AwardsWatch founder Erik Anderson to discuss the 1950 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Judy Holliday won for her performance in "Born Yesterday," beating Anne Baxter in "All About Eve," Bette Davis in "All About Eve," Eleanor Parker in "Caged," and Gloria Swanson in "Sunset Boulevard." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Holliday.
