SUMMARY:Best Actresses To Never Win An Oscar!
DESCRIPTION:The Academy Awards are designed to recognize the greatest achievements in movies. Each year\, huge audiences watch the Oscars\, and the results can make or break a film’s chances at success. They also have a huge impact on the careers of the performers. \nBut as you will see in this unique multimedia presentation\, laden with film clips\, Oscar has snubbed some of the greatest and most popular performers in cinema history! \nThis week\, we will be looking at the great ladies of the silver screen who have been denied the top acting awards! Some of the names on the list are sure to surprise you\, including the phenomenal Amy Adams! \nAlthough some of the amazing women we will feature eventually did win honorary Oscars or lifetime achievement awards\, it is nonetheless incomprehensible that some of Hollywood’s most important and accomplished actresses\, including many who appeared in numerous acclaimed films\, never won an acting Oscar. \nOne important example is Chicago’s own Kim Novak. In a ten-year period\, she made six films that are today considered cinema classics. Despite that amazing run\, she was never even nominated for an Oscar! \nOur top twenty list of snubbed actresses will definitely surprise you!  Each choice is accompanied by insightful analysis\, many film clips\, and numerous wonderful anecdotes. \n  \nPLEASE NOTE: This program is offered live and in person only at the East-West Center of the Glenview Senior Center. If you are not a member\, please contact them to register.
