This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes Eoin Daly to discuss the 1953 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Audrey Hepburn won for her performance in "Roman Holiday," beating Leslie Caron in "Lili," Ava Gardner in "Mogambo," Deborah Kerr in "From Here to Eternity," and Maggie McNamara in "The Moon Is Blue." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Hepburn.
