This week on the season premiere of And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes writer and podcaster Zita Short to discuss the 1970 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Glenda Jackson won for her performance in "Women in Love," beating Jane Alexander in "The Great White Hope," Ali MacGraw in "Love Story," Sarah Miles in "Ryan's Daughter," and Carrie Snodgress in "Diary of a Mad Housewife." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Jackson.
