Glenn Close's Oscar Performances Ranked

She's played vengeful exes, ruthless attorneys and a devilish dog-napper who looks wonderful in spots. But what will it take for Glenn Close to actually win an Oscar?

With three Emmys, three Golden Globes and three Tonys, the 74-year-old is rightfully one of the most beloved and revered actresses working today. The Academy Awards, however, have been much more elusive: Close has been nominated eight times since 1983, most recently for Netflix's "Hillbilly Elegy" in the supporting actress category. If she loses this year, she'll tie the late Peter O'Toole for the most Oscar nominations with no wins.

Ahead of the Oscars ceremony April 25, we look back at the best and worst of Close's Oscar-nominated work.

Sorry, too lazy to set up a Poll.

My vote for Best Non-Nominated Performance: Reversal of Fortune.

This woman is long overdue. I'm still salty at Olivia Colemen for winning that Oscar a couple of years ago. If Glenn doesn't take it this year, they need to just give her a Lifetime Achievement honor before she dies and call it a day. For my money, her turn as Alex Forrest in Fatal Attraction is one of the best performances on film, male or female. I'll take G over M any day.
