5 Luises...

I must admit that little Luise Rainer is an actress who has a special place in my heart. She may not have been the greatest actress ever but her Oscar wins were well deserved.

And the fact that she was the first actress to win two Oscars really makes her some kind of role model in this category.

So, to honor her, I will give out "Luises" to grade other performances. A performance can get a maximum of 5 Luises and a minimum of 0,5!

Who will get 5 of them?

Best Actress 1940

The first year will be 1940 and the nominees were

Bette Davis in The Letter

Joan Fontaine in Rebecca

Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story

Ginger Rogers in Kitty Foyle

Martha Scott in Our Town

Hello everybody!

I have been interested in the Oscars for a long time now and I am active on a lot of Oscar boards, so I just thought I could start my own blog. I will mostly do rankings of Oscar winners or profiles of certain years or reviews of Oscar winning movies/performances. I will probably start with a ranking of the Supporting Actress winners since I have done that already on a different website, so no extra work! :-) But I still need to see Penelope Cruz, so I will wait until then. I don't know how often I'm gonna post here because I am very busy at the moment, but I will try my best to add something new from time to time! Auf Wiedersehen!
