Kim Basinger is an excellent actress. A well deserved Oscar. I also think "Blind Date" is one of her best performances.

She was just to die for in that role… STUNNING! I personally sympathize with her because she has an anxiety disorder, not easy ! You can tell by seeing her reaction and Alec Baldwin who was kind of expecting the worst! 😱

I really like her, and she gave a great performance in LAC. I think Julianne Moore’s was technically better.

Kimila "Kim" Basinger was born in Athens, Georgia on December 8, 1953. She will be celebrating her 71st birthday on December 8, 2024. She has garnered acclaim for her work in film, for which she has received various accolades including an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award, a Screen Actors Guild Award, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. . In 2011 Los Angeles Times Magazine ranked her third on the "50 Most Beautiful Women In Film". For her femme fatale portrayal in L.A. Confidential (1997), Basinger won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.

Beautiful dress and colour.

@@elvisleon754 i actually thought Robin Williams was better in Good Will Hunting than Reynolds was in Boogie, so I was fine with that. I’ve seen both films numerous times, and it’s obvious to me that Moore gave the most riveting and complex performance in the category. I like Kim, and I loved LAC-thought it deserved Best Pic, but you’ll never get me to believe that Kim gave a better performance than Julianne. We’ll have to agree to disagree there. The fact is thst Km was the most popular name in the category that night, and we all know how well-loved Alec Baldwin was in the Actor’s branch of the Academy. She was expected to win and did. I think it’s telling too that Julianne went on to be nominated 4 additional times (winning once) over the years. Also interesting is that in the film community exists an organization that hosts and presents the “20/20” awards. That is, films and performances from 20 years ago are revisited and reconsidered in each and every Oscar category, with the benefit of 2 decades of hindsight behind them (hence the name 20/20). Guess who won Supporting Actress at the 2018 ceremony. Guess who didn’t even make the final 5 cut??

I'm confused....wasn't she the lead actress in that movie? Why would she be nominated for supporting actress?

Julianne Moore was fantabulous and was absolutely robbed. The utterly transfixing and human way in which she portrayed a porn star is just magnificent.
