1938-1940 Best Actress







Best Actress 1938

Oscar Nominnes (My Ranking)
1. Norma Shearer - Marie Antoinette
2. Bette Davis - Jezebel
3. Wendy Hiller - Pygmalion
4. Margaret Sullavan - Three Comrades
5. Fay Bainter - White Banners


A good year of actresses with Norma Shearer being my favourite, REALLY close runner-up is Bette Daivs, both of them gives two of their finest performances ever. Wendy Hiller is also good. If I got to choose I would replace Sullavan and Bainter with Hepburn for either "Bringing Up baby" or "Holiday".

Then the other candidate could be Joan Crawford in "The Shining Hour", Jean Arthur "You Can't Take It With You", Olivia de Havilland "The Adventures of Robin Hood".

Who's your favourite?

Romeo and Juliet

Now i've finally watched Romeo and Juliet from 1936. It's a good movie with some flaws. Like example it tends to get boring times to times, and Leslie Howard don't give us the presence of being young. Norma Shearer isn't as miscast as some people say she is.

The Verdict is it's a good movie, well deserving of your time.

La Shearer


Watching Romeo and Juliet (36) right now with the lovely La Reine Norma.

Who's the Best Actress of 1938?

Tomorrow's a new edition of Best Actress 1938

I shall watch it tomorrow so I can get a view of my beloved Norma
