TELLURIDE AND OSCAR PART FIVE: BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
I'm continuing my eight part series about the relationship between the Telluride Film Festival in the last 14 years (beginning with 2005-the year before I first attended the fest) and The Oscars. Today's subject is Best Supporting Actress.
Here are the women nominated for that honor from films that played The SHOW. Winners are indicated with ***.
2005: Michelle Williams/Brokeback Mountain, Catherine Keener/Capote
2006: Rinko Kikuchi/Babel, Adriana Barazza/Babel
2007: Cate Blanchett/I'm Not There
2008: Taraji P. Henson/The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
2009: Anna Kendrick/Up in the Air, Vera Farmiga/Up in the Air
2010: Helena Bonham Carter/The King's Speech
2011: Berenice Bejo/The Artist, Janet McTeer/Albert Nobbs
2012: No nominees
2013: Lupita N'yongo/12 Years a Slave***, June Squibb/Nebraska
Emma Stone-Oscar nominee for Birdman
2014: Emma Stone/Birdman, Laura Dern/Wild, Keira Knightley/The Imitation Game
2015: Rachel McAdams/Spotlight, Rooney Mara/Carol, Kate Winslet/Steve Jobs
2016: Naomie Harris/Moonlight, Michelle Williams/Manchester by the Sea
2017: Laurie Metcalf/Lady Bird, Octavia Spencer/The Shape of Water
2018: Emma Stone/The Favourite, Rachel Weisz/The Favourite, Marina de Tavira/Roma
Notes: An astounding 26 nominations in this category in the past 14 years but remarkably only a single win for Lupita N'yongo for 12 Years a Slave.
Both Michelle Williams and Emma Stone have been nominated twice in the category for TFF film performances. Additionally, Stone was nominated and won Best Actress for La La Land. TFF films account for all three of Stone nominations.
Williams has two other nominations for Best Actress for Blue Valentine and My Week with Marilyn.
Laura Dern's two Oscar nominations have both come via TFF films. One in this category in 2014 for Wild. The other was for Best Actress in 1991 for her performance in Rambling Rose.
TFF has seen three years in which three women were nominated 2014, 2015 and 2018.
To the best of my ability, I believe Ann Sothern was the first woman nominated for Supporting Actress for a T-ride film for 1987's The Whales of August.
Next Tuesday: Part Six: Supporting Actors.
THE WOMAN NOT IN THE WINDOW THIS YEAR

Reports appeared yesterday that the Disney folks have moved Joe Wright's The Woman in the Window off its original Oct. 4th date.
That, as you might surmise, moves the film off the TFF #46 watch list.
The Hollywood Reporter's Rebecca Keegan noted Tuesday that the film has been pulled from the schedule for re-shoots after test screenings revealed that audiences were confused. THR reports that the re-shoots re set to occur next month after star Amy Adams finishes her work on the Ron Howard project Hillbilly Elegy (already on my radar for TFF #47).
The film also features Oscars winner Gary Oldman and Julianne Moore.
Disney acquired the film earlier this year as apart of its takeover of 20th Century Fox and its off-shoots including Fox 2000 which was the home for The Woman in the Window.
Here's the complete story from The Hollywood Reporter.
THE JESUS ROLLS INTO 2020
John Turturro's semi-sequel to The Big Lebowski-which had been titled Going Places but has been re-christened now as The Jesus Rolls- has an announced release target. Multiple sources put the film into an early 2020 release window. No specific date has been announced, however.
Screen Media has acquired the film for distribution.
I had been watching for the news of distribution acquisition and dating and admittedly had it on my TFF radar largely because of the connection of the film to The Coen Brothers' Big Lebowski.
I'm of a mind that the 2020 date probably means that the film is probably out as a TFF consideration.

MORE ON MILOS STEHLIK (AND A LITTLE ABOUT BEN BARENHOLTZ)
Continued memorials for Milos Stehlik, 1997 TFF Silver Medallion winner and member of the TFF Board of Governors (among many, many other titles and accolades). Stehlik passed away last Saturday.

The Criterion Collection (by David Hudson) It should be noted that this piece from The Criterion Collection website is for both Stehlik as well as Ben Barenholtz. Barenholtz was a producer, distributor and programmer of note and I am told was instrumental in the early careers of David Lynch, The Coen Brothers and Darren Aronofsky. He was an early and frequent attendee at Telluride.
Barenholtz died on June 27th at the age of 83. His New York Times obituary is linked here.
Thanks for reading. More tomorrow including a new Ten Bets.
