Why was Mia Farrow never Oscar nominated?

Strange that she never got even a single nomination despite three BAFTA nominations, 7 Golden Globe nominations, and she even won two Italian Oscars (the David di Donatello Award). Why does the Academy hate her so much?

Because she couldn't commit. Which is also a problem she had in other areas of her life.

Because

MIA

IS

BITCH.

Because she’s certifiable. And not SO talented or SO popular /box office that she could get away with it.

I agree she has deserved to have been nominated a couple of times though, along with (even more egregious) Donald Sutherland.

She was above it all in nyc.

Mia was one of the original nepo babies. First her parents' connections opened doors for her. Then Sinatra, then Woody Allen. Everything was handed to her. Do you notice she only married around those who could DO things for her. No C or D level husband like Doris Day (all of them) or Esther Williams (the first one) or Judy Garland (all but Vincente.)

Now she's using Ronan.

R5 don’t forget Philip Roth- yet another reason why I can’t take any of her Woody “accusations” seriously.

She was never much of an actress.

She should have played the isabelle adjani role in the Diabolique remake.

She was good in Broadway Danny Rose and should have gotten a supporting actress nomination for that, but she's mostly just passable as an actress, and she's got no charisma at all. She's a wet mop turned psycho.

People said she was unlikable in The Great Gatsby as Daisy but wasn't Daisy supposed to be unlikable? Fitzgerald's daughter said Mia Farrow looked exactly as she imagined Daisy to be.

[quote] she's got no charisma at all

This is absolutely true, even when she’s given pretty good performances. If it weren’t for her parents she never would have even gotten on the map.

Rosemary's Baby would beg to differ but that's one of her few good roles.
