2001 Best Actress (feat. Isaiah Reaves)

And the Runner-Up Is

This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes playwright Isaiah Reaves to discuss the 2001 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Halle Berry won for her performance in "Monster's Ball," beating Judi Dench in "Iris," Nicole Kidman in "Moulin Rouge!," Sissy Spacek in "In the Bedroom," and Renée Zellweger in "Bridget Jones's Diary." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Berry.
