But if it's based on that, then how often has Helen been nominated versus Kate? Someone pointed out that Kate is the most nominated actress of her generation. I think maybe even of the last decade.
I think it was set in stone before anyone even walked the red carpet, so I found it refreshing that an insider would have that opinion, especially since it validated a performance that I thought was amazing.
I was actually hoping someone else would win—even if it wasn't Kate—just so it wouldn't be so predictable. My mother saw several of the performances and didn't think Helen was any better than the rest of them. She said Penelope Cruz was so wonderful in Volver.
