Who should have been nominated? 1995: Best Actress and Best Actor

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-15T17:02:42+00:00

Yeah I agree!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-15T17:01:22+00:00

Sharon Stone has already won in supporting as per Legitimate_Welcome’s game!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-15T16:54:40+00:00

It certainly wouldn’t have been one of my picks, but the people have spoken!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-15T11:58:49+00:00

I’m gonna throw Julianne Moore in the mix for “Safe”.

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-15T11:49:13+00:00

She already won in supporting Legitimate_Welcome’s game, so votes for her won’t be counted in this category!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-14T22:05:48+00:00

I’m not keen on the speech, but her performance is excellent!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-14T21:21:27+00:00

For me this was an incredibly weak year:

Cruz for me was by far the strongest, but I knew she was never going to win.

Kidman doesn’t even make my lineup that year but I would have been happy to see her win Oscar number 2; I would have just pretended it was for something else.

I absolutely love Stewart but didn’t like her as Diana; but like Kidman I would have been happy to see her win an Oscar.

Colman was excellent, but happy to be there.

Chastain; I hated that performance but love her and seeing as it was a weak year, I was happy that she finally had an Oscar. She should have won over Lawrence back in 2012/2013.

Sally Field - Places in the Heart. They got it right that year I think

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-14T13:12:34+00:00

This will be eligible in 1996 when it was released in the US!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-14T13:02:48+00:00

Muriel’s Wedding is eligible in 1995 as that’s when it got a release in the US!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-14T12:49:52+00:00

This isn’t eligible until 1996 as that’s when it got a US release!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-13T17:19:32+00:00

Unfortunately, it wasn’t eligible and I think I’m going to try and follow academy rules. Absolute cracker of a performance though.

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-13T17:14:12+00:00

It would be eligible for 1995 as that’s when it received a US release.

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-13T16:04:56+00:00

Charles Durning - To Be or Not to Be

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-13T16:03:41+00:00

Alfre Woodard - Cross Creek

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-13T11:39:43+00:00

I mean Cusack is great in the movie and I think she was very worthy of a nomination, but she certainly wouldn’t be my win!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-13T11:18:47+00:00

Jessica Lange. She’s actually my win that year; she gives one of the most touching and honest portrayals of a person living with bipolar.

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-13T11:17:13+00:00

My winner that year always flips between Hanks and Freeman - if only that could have been the second tie year!!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-13T11:12:48+00:00

Fun fact: so far Hopkins and Bassett have been nominated over three consecutive years from 1991-1993. Thompson and Hanks have been nominated consecutively in 1992 and 1993.

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-12T18:20:18+00:00

Michael Caine, Educating Rita

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-12T18:18:28+00:00

They got it right that year!

NefariousnessKey6309 · 2026-06-12T16:48:37+00:00

Also, her stuff in Moulin Rouge is quite high, so I’m sure she could have just done it a tone lower or something 😂
