I hadn't seen GBG at the time the Oscars were telecast and I had never heard of Amy Ryan. The little Oscar clip they showed of her made me seek out and watch this terrific film. I saw Michael Clayton, and Ryan was robbed!

I haven't seen Michael Clayton but Tilda is a very good actress though. I thought Amy was great in GBG.

She was really good in GBG, but it's hard to out do Tilda in Michael Clayton.
You need to see that one Koffee.

How the hell is Sandra Bullock winning Oscars while Amy Ryan is stuck doing crappy bitparts in crappy Stallone movies?
Hope she has a decent role in Birdman.

I don't remember Tilda's performance in MC at all, while Amy's performance in GBG is still fresh and vivid in my mind. Brilliant work.

2008 Best Supporting Actress WINNERS:
Golden Globe(GG): Cate Blanchett ("I'm Not There")
Screen Actors Guild (SAG): Rudy Dee ("American Gangster")
BAFTA: Tilda Swinton ("Michael Clayton")
Oscar: Tilda Swinton ("Michael Clayton")
Amy Ryan appeared to be a front runner for the Best Supporting Actress Oscar, because she won many of the early critic awards. However, she failed to win any of the major awards, so by the time the Oscars rolled around Tilda Swinton was favored to win, because she was her movie's best chance for an Oscar.
"Gone Baby Gone" received 1 Oscar Nomination : Best Supporting Actress - Amy Ryan vs "Michael Clayton" received 7 Oscar nominations, including:
*Best Picture - Sydney Pollack
*Best Director -Tony Gilroy
Best Actor - George Clooney (Daniel Day-Lewis won for "There Will Be Blood")
*Best Supporting Actor - Tom Wilkinson
Best Supporting Actress - Tilda Swinton (WInner)
*Best Screenplay - Tony Gilroy (Diablo Cody won for "Juno")
*Best Original Score ("Atonement")
*"No Country for Old Men" won Best Picture / Best Director / Best Supporting Actor / Best Adapted Screenplay
In comparison, front runner and Best Supporting Actor - Javier Bardem won all the major awards (GG, SAG, BAFTA), including the Oscar.
Amy Ryan's nomination was her reward and recognition. She's now a great stage actress with a movie career. She was great in "Capote" (2005).
