This week on a bonus episode And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin talks with TCM host Dave Karger about the 1999 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Hilary Swank won for her performance in "Boys Don't Cry." Like the main show episode, we discuss Swank's performance and the other nominees, but from Dave's perspective as a reporter at the time. We also discuss his great new book, 50 Oscar Nights!
