The Oscars as you say were very competitive that year. Best Actress is one of the rare years where anyone of the five could have won and been considered deserving. There was just no room for the Gypsy women.
I think the original version is better overall but Midler really kills Rose's Turn. To me that is the best it has ever been done. (obviously I didn't see Merman or Lansbury) but I saw Tyne, Bernadette and Patti but Bette is the definitive in my book.
Russell is pretty good though too. Those movies where they dubbed them are always hard to judge. I find myself distracted like...she's good but wait its somebody else really.... |
