'Still Alice' Caps Julianne Moore's Amazing Year

  • 16 January 2015

Julianne Moore is perhaps the greatest working actress who hasn't yet won an Oscar, but her nomination for 'Still Alice' could very well change that. She's been nominated four times before: 'Boogie Nights' (1998), 'The End of the Affair' (2000), 'The Hours' and 'Far From Heaven' (both 2003). And many argue that her performances in 'The Hours' and 'Far From Heaven' should have won both the supporting and lead actress Oscars that year.

It's not like Moore's mantelpiece isn't already weighed down with trophies, including two Emmies, three Golden Globes, a SAG Award and an Independent Spirit Award. And there's also a whole cupboard full of awards from film festivals and critics groups. She's only the second actress (along with Juliette Binoche) to receive Best Actress honours from the three big European festivals: Cannes, Berlin and Venice.
