[ For full episode catalogue please subscribe to our Patreon at Patreon.com/BestActress ] The year is 2022 and the nominees are: 1. Nicole Kidman - Being the Ricardos 2. Penélope Cruz - Parallel Mothers 3. Kristen Stewart - Spencer 4. Jessica Chastain - The Eyes of Tammy Faye 5. Olivia Colman - The Lost Daughter - In 2022 Jessica Chastain won her Oscar (finally) for portraying the iconic televangelist, Tammy Faye. Chastain has incredible range and she certainly does not disappoint in this larger than life role. Was it my personal fav performance of hers? You’ll have to listen to the episode to find out! Frankly, you could make an argument for any one of these performances as winsome. I think it was time to reward Chastain for her incredible body of work. Maybe the spoiler would have been Cruz or Kidman; I think many thought this was going to happen. Colman was semi-fresh off her recent win for The Favourite so a win was not likely. I was so happy to see Stewart get a nomination (finally) and it stands as a victory for so many reasons. Who do you think should have won?
