The quiz did not give credit for "Thompson" in Sense & Sensibility, but did recognize it for Howards End.

I'm not sure if it's "Thomas" or "Scott Thomas" that should work, but it's got to be at least one of them.

Oh, and also, it's Mr. & Mrs. Bridge, not Bridges.

Either Thomas or Scott Thomas should work for Kristin Scott Thomas. Otherwise, fun quiz.

Easy, got them all in a flash. This is the stuff I'm most knowledgeable about by far, and good thing too because it's so useful for life.

Why is my comment voted down, you ingrateful imbeciles? You should appreciate my expansive knowledge of Academy history.

Apologies - did I accidentally report that comment above? I hit the wrong button. Just meant to mark it down.

good to see credit for so many excellent performances, especially Emily Watson's. Perhaps someday there will be a nom for Emma Watson too

Many of these were good movies; they make me feel a little nostalgic now that I think about it. Was it really almost 20 years ago that Julia Roberts was in Pretty Woman?

@MovieDynamic: I voted up your first comment because I thought it was a pretty funny and sarcastic commentary on the knowledge of not only you but all Sporcle users. I voted down your second one because I don't think voting up the first one was so obvious that its opposite reaction can only be done by an "ingrateful imbecile."

poor Annette Bening. Her last 2 Best Actress Nominations she got beat by Hilary Swank. Although I think Swank deserved her win in Million Dollar Baby, I think Bening deserved the award for American Beauty.

That should be reversed, dude. If not you're insane. Hilary Swank in "Boys Don't Cry" is one of the greatest lead actress performances of the last 30 or so years. Tremendous.

Perhaps you should specify that these are for the Academy Awards. I don't see that information anywhere. Also, you spelled actresses wrong.

Fun quiz. Though for some reason I couldn't think of the one who was nominated for Little Women. I could see her face. I'm like, "it's that one that likes to shop lift!" But couldn't recall her name.

I didn't start doing well beyond the obvious ones until I remembered the amazing run of classic actresses coming back and British actresses making their mark. Dench, Lange, Bonham Carter, Woodward, Deneuve, Richardson, Thompson...such good years.

By some miracle I got them all. I guess I just winged it on Montenegro, thinking about the country.

Bonham-Carter or Bonham Carter should be sufficient without Helena, as all the other answers are Last Names Acceptable, but it's still a five-globe quiz for me.
