1972 Best Actress (feat. Mark O'Donovan)

This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes writer/Instagram star Mark O'Donovan to discuss the 1972 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Liza Minnelli won for her performance in "Cabaret," beating Diana Ross in "Lady Sings the Blues," Maggie Smith in "Travels with My Aunt," Cicely Tyson in "Sounder," and Liv Ullmann in "The Emigrants." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Minnelli.
