Cate Blanchett also has CAROL this year, in which she plays a lesbian in love with a younger woman (Rooney Mara) that's getting Oscar buzz.
I wonder if the movies will cancel out one or the other? I don't think the Academy would go for TWO films about lesbians. Just like they only focus on one black adversity film per season.

Julianne Moore's Oscar win this year could put her out of the running next year (as for winning but she still could be nominated) anyway. Has Meryl won two years in a row? Certainly been nominated in consecutive years.
However, Moore will have the "character with an illness" to her advantage. But then again she may have already played that card with her "Stll Alice" winning performance.
They might go for one actress nomination in the leading role (Moore or Blanchett) and Page/Mara for supporting depending on what's appropriate for the role. Or pick one from each film. Or ignore both as R18 suggested.

R33 it looks like she'll be nominated again this year. Possibly doubly. Best Actress for RICKI AND THE FLASh but definitely for Supporting Actress for SUFFRAGETTE in which she plays radical British feminist Emmeline Pankhurst. Pankhurst is an obvious Oscar bait, not only will be another accent role for Streep but Pankhurst was very outspoken and got herself arrested many times.

R35 the Hilary Swank film, IRON JAWED ANGELS, was about the American suffrage movement. It starred Swank as Alice Paul and Anjelica Huston as Carrie Chapman Catt. Pankhurst was only mentioned in passing early on, when Paul and Lucy Burns returned from England and were inspired to become more radical in their approach.
Two different films but similar in theme.

I stand corrected, thanks, R37. I thought the Frances O'Connor character was Pankhurst somehow (maybe because the actress was British, right?)
The HBO movie was good, though, wasn't it. Maybe 10 years too early.

Brandon Teena was transgender at a time when it was not understood (1993), let alone in a small redneck town in Nebraska. Brandon reversed his given name (Teena Brandon) and went by the pronoun "He." The movie showed him using fake penises, and in real life he spoke about eventually getting a sex change, but it must've seemed like a pipe dream to someone from a hick town with no prospects.
Just because he couldn't afford hormone treatments or probably didn't know where to start doesn't mean he wasn't transgender.

Aileen Wuornos wasn't a lesbian, she was just desperate to be loved, and finally found that with someone who happened to be a woman. Similar to a prison relationship. And yes, Hillary played a transgendered man, not a lesbian.

Aileen Wuornos could best be described as bi -- or "conveniently lesbian." She had had mainly relationships with males and was married to a man in the seventies. The woman Tyria ("Shelby" in the film) was her only female sexual/romantic partner. Wuornos later admitted that at that point she was just looking to be loved.

I really liked IRON JAWED ANGELS film. It should've been a theatrical release. Perhaps punched up a little bit 'cause it plays like a TV movie, but the story behind it was very inspiring.
From what I've read, SUFFRAGETTE uses the British suffrage movement as a backdrop, but it's mainly fictional. Kind of like Jame Cameron's TITANIC uses a historical event but the main story and characters are fictional.

R104 Leto in DALLAS BUYERS CLUB was trans, as I think Hurt in KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN also was. I know he's been passed off as en effeminate homosexual, but I think that's because transgenderism was not fully understood at the time, but in the film Molina makes several comments about wanting to dress like a woman and at one point he even confesses to Valentin that he wishes he could cut off his penis and that he found it ugly. A gay man would never say that.
