[ For full episode catalogue please subscribe to our Patreon at Patreon.com/BestActress ] The year is 1966 and the nominees are: Julie Andrews - The Sound of Music Julie Christie - Darling Samantha Eggar - The Collector Elizabeth Hartman - A Patch of Blue Simone Signoret - Ship of Fools - In 1966 Julie Christie won Best Actress for Darling playing a young London model who sleeps her way to the top (good for you girl). She famously beat Julie Andrews in what is considered her best work in The Sound of Music. Andrews had won the award for Best Actress the year prior so it made her win unlikely. However many feel if Andrews should have an Oscar, it should have been for this film. Ultimately this year comes down to Julie vs. Julie and it didn't disappoint. A lot of really interesting films and performances. Join host Kyle Brownrigg and he discusses with guest host Joe Arsenal.
