Michelle Pfeiffer should have won the Oscar for The Fabulous Baker Boys

OP the critics agreed with you

Pfeiffer swept all four major critics awards - NY & LA Film Critics + National Board & National Society of Film Critics Best Actress Award

Then won the Golden Globe on top of that

Armed with five major awards going into the Oscars, it was her luck to face off against an 80 year old Jessica Tandy

I rewatch this movie every year or two. She’s fantastic.

I love it too.

Pfeiffer was good (and certainly much better than Tandy was in that overrated piece of shit film) but the Oscar that year should have gone to that Polish chick from "Interrogation" who won the Best Actress award at Cannes - definitely one of the greatest and most haunting female movie performances I've ever seen!

Fuck off, that Oscar should been MINE!

Pfeiff should get a retrospective nod for LADYHAWKE.

Not because it's an Oscar-worthy movie or her performance is ground-breaking; just because I love it, she's beautiful and it's an underrated cult classic film no-one talks about enough. It would be no less arbitrary to do that, than hand out AAs for the endless stupid reasons they do.
