I think if I created an award (let's call them the sophies), I think I would hand out lifetime achievement awards a lot more frequently than these oscars and golden globes. And it would be for other stuff, too, not just for great directors and great leading actors. Actors who consistently have amazing supporting roles should be honoured too. I think the honoree for the lifetime achievement award in supporting roles at the first annual sophie awards would definitely be Christine Baranski (round of applause, please).
Ever since I saw Mamma Mia! last summer, I have found her randomly hiding out in a lot other interesting films. She's in Chicago, How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000), The Birdcage, and, of course, Addams Family Values (plus good guest appearances in 3rd Rock from the Sun and Frasier) . It is the last film in which she shines! SHINES I TELL YOU! I love her as the overly-chipper camp counselor who tries to convert Wednesday and Pugsley. See for yourself.
Let me know if you have any suggestions for other amazing supporting actors (I'm thinking Leslie Jordan, just for being Beverley Leslie on Will and Grace).
Much love. x
