NYFCC Award for Best Supporting Actress.

Barton Fink, Judy Davis

Following Keke Palmer ‘s win for playing the feisty sister in “Nope,” I researched how much my esteemed collages 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-four years since Dyan Cannon first won in NY in 1969, 14 of their choices have failed to get a nomination beginning with Sissy Spacek’s snub for “Three Women” in 1977.

Only a 74% Chance of an Oscar Nomination.

Nope

Result: only a 74% concordance or a slightly greater than a one in four chance of Oscar snubbing the NYFCC choice.
