The year is 1989 and the nominees are: 1. Sigourney Weaver- Working Girl 2. Joan Cusack - Working Girl 3. Frances McDormand - Mississippi Burning 4. Michelle Pfeiffer - Dangerous Liaisons 5. Geena Davis - The Accidental Tourist In 1989 Geena Davis won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for The Accidental Tourist. This film is not as well known as the rest of her work (comparatively speaking). Leading up to the Oscars Davis did not receive nominations from any other award circuit. If you watch the telecast of the win Davis looked visibly shocked when she won (as did some of the other nominees). I love Geena Davis but I find it interesting how she has an Oscar for her least known role (to the average movie goer). Working Girl received two nominations respectively for Weaver and Cusack (and for Cusack’s hair). Michelle Pfeiffer was nominated for Dangerous Liaisons (the original Cruel Intentions) and probably expected to win this award (she won the BAFTA leading up to it). Finally, Frances McDormand received her first nomination for Mississippi Burning playing the wife of a Klan member in the south. Join host Kyle Brownrigg with guest host Ted Morris as they discuss.
