Oscars are clearly an objective judgement based on artistic merit, not a popularity contest. This explains why they have given the oscar to such undisputed acting masters as Roberto Begnini, John Wayne, Charlton Heston, Halle Berry, Cher, Liza Minelli, Grace Kelly, Cuba Gooding Jr., Renee Zellweger, Kim Basinger, Mira Sorvino, and, of course, Marisa Tomei all actors and actresses who - through their range and versitality as actors, have changed their profession, or raised it to a new level. Yes, truly these actors deserve to be remembered fifty years from now for their "best of the year" perfor2000mances.
My personal favourite, by the way, was when the academy proved to the world that Julia Roberts had turned in a better performance than Ellen Burstyn (Requiem for a Dream), Joan Allen (the Contender), Laura Linney (You Can Count On Me), and Juliette Binoche (well, okay, Chocolat was way overrated, but that doesn't discount the other three). -

Felicity should've definitely won. I also loved Judi Dench! I'm an actor and on the day of the oscars (before the awards came out) my drama teacher said that "Reese will win the oscar." I said "Felicity Huffman should get it." She said "she's the won who deserves it, but wont get it because not enough people have seen Transamerica." I think everyone thinks it's a pop.contest now. It's really sad.

I love how people are going to be arguing this until the next Oscars come around. Seriously, if she really deserved it they'll just give her a pity Oscar to make up for it like they did with Elizabeth Taylor. She didn't win, Reese did, move on already.

I agree with miss thang in one thing, Felicity had the best performance, and i did see all the movies nominated, her performance rocked, Felicitty IS an ACTRESS.
Come on, "she learnt how to sing, and play"also Meryl streep has learnt to sing and play instruments in different movies and she did not win an oscar beacuase of that right?
I think, Reese is a good actress, but she did not delivered a fantastic performance in that movie, Joaquin pHoenix did it betteR, Her performance was overrated by the media and some "so called critics", but lets be honest, Felicitty deserved that award because of QUALITY of her performance.
