NYFCC Award for Best Supporting Actress.

Barton Fink, Judy Davis

I researched how much my esteemed colleagues in NY agree with the Academy. What are the chances of their choice for Best Supporting Actress picking up an Oscar nomination? Well, in the fifty-six years since Dyan Cannon first won in NY in 1969, 16 of their choices have failed to get a nomination, beginning with Sissy Spacek’s snub for “Three Women” in 1977.

Only a 71% Chance of an Oscar Nomination.

Result: only a 71% concordance or a slightly greater than a one in four chance of Oscar snubbing the NYFCC choice.
