Description

This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes Le Noir Auteur founder Terence Johnson to discuss the 1943 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Jennifer Jones won for her performance in "The Song of Bernadette," beating Jean Arthur in "The More the Merrier," Ingrid Bergman in "For Whom the Bell Tolls," Joan Fontaine in "The Constant Nymph," and Greer Garson in "Madame Curie."
