Oscar Trivia: What if Kate Winslet loses?
Kate Winslet earned her sixth Academy Award nomination on Thursday for her performance in The Reader. All signs point to Oscar for Mrs. Mendes, but what happens if she doesn’t win? Well, she’ll tie Deborah Kerr for female actor with the most nominations and no wins.
Kerr earned her sixth and final acting nomination when she was only 39 years old for her leading role in The Sundowners (1960). She received an Honorary Oscar in 1994 for being “An artist of impeccable grace and beauty, a dedicated actress whose motion picture career has always stood for perfection, discipline and elegance.”
I hope Kate does win the Oscar this year just so she doesn’t have to accept an honorary one thirty-four years from now with something like that engraved on the plate.
