This one will take a while. The richness of 1956 and 1965--I would love to hear about Maggie Smith in Othello and Shelley Winters in A Patch of Blue and Ruth Gordon, but then there's Dorothy Malone in one of my fave perfs ever with Mercedes McCambridge and Eileen Heckart in the same year--and Baby Doll! I see 1974 is winning so far, and that one is very full as well--Madeline Kahn! Dianne Ladd! Talia Shire--oh, oops. Choices, choices, choices!
I do have to say i would love to hear about the Marisa Tomei year from everyone at some point. That one was incredible.
Yeah. I'm very excited about 4 of the 7 seven years this time 'round. The smackdown hasn't done anything from the 1970s yet, though we've hit every other decade, and the movies for 1974 are great. 1992 remains one of the more legendary years in the category. For sheer camp cultural capital, you can't been 1956. And 1947 has three movies I've been meaning to see forever...
So -- 't looks like a goodie.
