Show Notes

This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes writer Michael Domanico to discuss the 1991 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Jodie Foster won for her performance in "The Silence of the Lambs," beating Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon in "Thelma & Louise," Laura Dern in "Rambling Rose," and Bette Midler in "For the Boys." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Foster.
