One of Hollywood’s biggest cheerleaders has been sidelined at this year’s Oscars. Jamie Lee Curtis was snubbed for her performance in The Last Showgirl despite recent Best Supporting Actress nominations at both the SAG Awards and BAFTAs.
In “The Last Showgirl,” Jamie Lee Curtis upends a host of cinematic clichés about women. Jamie Lee Curtis’s supporting role as the sixty-something Annette in “The Last Showgirl” is a master class in portraying — and honoring — female characters, their bodies, their pleasure and self-possession.
Starring Pamela Anderson, The Last Showgirl continues to do well at the box office despite no Academy Award nominations.
Directed by Gia Coppola, “The Last Showgirl,” follows Shelly (Pamela Anderson) as a Las Vegas showgirl whose show, after 30 years of performing, abruptly closes — forcing her to forge a path for her future.
Some fans are claiming that Jamie Lee Curtis has been snubbed by the Academy for her role in 'The Last Showgirl'.
After “Baywatch,” that “Pam and Tommy” miniseries and a documentary on Netflix, Pamela Anderson was ready for a change. She gets it with "The Last Showgirl."
Director Gia Coppola doesn’t force any observations ... then pops the bubble when Annette turns up. Played by Jamie Lee Curtis, she’s a tough broad who knows what sells.
