Ulmann or Dunaway?

I beleive you are right. Liv was also the favorite because she did not receive a nomination for Scenes From A Marriage. This despite a petition signed by many in the industry including 4 of the actresses who were eventually nominated.
Your mentioning the show made me dig out my copy and watch it again. It was much more streamlined than the year before. This was due to Billy Friedkin's taking over the reigns. -

The greatest with Liv, is that one 100% knows she was/is a real actress. She is so extremely different in real life, than the roles she has played. Other than her and Brando, it is really hard to tell just how much many others really are "acting"!?
I have not seen many of the classic great actors and actresses in interviews. But today, one gets to see them all the time. Time and time again I see the exact same person giving the interview, as the one the person just played on screen. But I think most of us both agree and know this already.
As far as I know, I don't think she has ever played anyone similar to her own self. But then again, just like with Brando, acting has always been seen on as a challenge for her. Only selected few do pick films almost solely on challenge.
Other than that, I agree with the other posters. The "crap" roles ruin much for Dunaway. But even without them, I think Liv is a level above. Liv is in the elite class. One of very, very few which can be debated as the16d0 best. -

Well it really doesn't matter - as this user who originally posted this thread, is nothing but a troll who goes from Faye board to Faye board causing trouble just because he didn't like her performance in "Supergirl." Nobody pay attention.
