與奧斯卡獎無緣的20名偉大演員

2. Marilyn Monroe (1926-62) 瑪麗蓮·夢露

Maybe it was considered enough that she was the pin-up to end all pin-ups, and a wildly successful star for ten years. Perhaps she made too many comedies – never the surest path to Academy favour. But any one of a half-dozen performances should have earned Monroe’s inclusion, if only as a polite nod of appreciation.
也許夢露被認為是在海報上活了一生的女人，她同時也是一位走紅十年的成功明星。可能她拍了太多喜劇了，而喜劇并不最受奧斯卡青睞。如果是出自禮貌性欣賞的話，她有六分之一的作品可以獲得提名。

Most robbed for: Actress, 1959 – Only Jack Lemmon in Some Like it Hot’s lead trio got mentioned, but Monroe is fifty times funnier in it than nominee Doris Day in Pillow Talk.
失之交臂：最佳女主角，1959——《熱情似火》的三位主角中只有杰克·萊蒙獲得提名，但是夢露比《枕邊細語》中獲得提名的多麗絲·戴要有趣50倍。
