The Top 25: Best Supporting Actress Winners
Another week begins with another list! To continue on with a very fun weekly series I’m doing…we’re in the midst of talking the top 25 Oscar winners in just about every single one of the Academy Award categories.

This week, for this particular acting category, what I’m going to do is give you the list right now, along with a few words about each of the top 25 victors that I’ve chosen. The big eight categories cater to this style nicely, so that’s likely how it’ll go for all of those. Here we go now: 25. Penelope Cruz (Vicky Cristina Barcelona) – The supporting female performances in Woody Allen films are going to be popping up a lot here, and this most recent winner for one of his movies is a great one. Cruz is fiery and on top of her game in this one. It’s one of Allen’s sexiest films, with one of […]
