Description

This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes Sporcle curator Christof to discuss the 1963 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Patricia Neal won for her performance in "Hud," beating Leslie Caron in "The L-Shaped Room," Shirley MacLaine in "Irma la Douce," Rachel Roberts in "This Sporting Life," and Natalie Wood in "Love with the Proper Stranger."
