Such a shitty actress/ movie. But it was HUGE in '71!

You know she got nominated for the best actress Oscar that year? Having nothing to do with her oily husband Robert Evans being president of Paramount at that time.

She is such an icon, you still see women dressing or styling themselves like her. She literally never goes out of style.

Her competition in ‘71. Glenda won it, she’d superb in that film 🎥

Actress Glenda Jackson. Women in Love. Jane Alexander. The Great White Hope. Ali MacGraw. Love Story. Sarah Miles. Ryan's Daughter. Carrie Snodgress. Diary of a Mad Housewife.

Yes I know. I was 12 or 13 then. I thought she, O'Neil, and Love Story were all brilliant. Then I tried to watch it 20 years later. Blech.

Plus they were 32 at the time playing 20 year old characters! And they looked 32 😎

They used to make incoming Harvard freshmen watch it all the way thru. Cruel and unusual punishment 😱
