This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes InSession Film's Amy Thomasson to discuss the 1984 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Sally Field won for her performance in "Places in the Heart," beating Judy Davis in "A Passage to India," Jessica Lange in "Country," Vanessa Redgrave in "The Bostonians," and Sissy Spacek in "The River." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Field.
