Description

This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes Chelsea Eichholz of The Community Rewatch Podcast and Untitled Cinema Gals to discuss the 1930-31 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Marie Dressler won for her performance in "Min and Bill," beating Marlene Dietrich in "Morocco," Irene Dunne in "Cimarron," Ann Harding in "Holiday," and Norma Shearer in "A Free Soul."
