The podcast where we dive into the filmographies of actress who have never won an Oscar and contemplate how close they got.
We delve into the cult classic horror remake with a very Tumblr-esque cinematic profile. Also discussed, Isabelle Huppert, YTV, and Nicomi rumors.
This week we're back with the first of two Naomi Watts Oscar nominations! Unfortunately, we didn't love this movie as much as the Academy (but we're still happy she was nominated).
This movie is bad in so many different ways but it gave us some deeply deeply tremendous Susan Sarandon + Naomi Watts interactions.
We're back after a week long break with another 2014 movie! This one is... somehow worse than the last one but that didn't stop the SAG voting body from giving Naomi Watts her third nomination for it!
Literally only Vee seems to like Baumbach but we ALL love Margot at the Wedding.
We're taking a break from Naomi Watts this week and talking about our ideal lineups for the 2021 Oscars. Yes, if anyone is wondering, Vee finds a way to bring up Isabelle Huppert.
This is the second half of our Mulholland Drive episode where we talk about Cannes, the Golden Globes, and obviously, the Oscars.
Today we talk about the movie that started it all, the best movie of the 21st century, and David Lynch's final "normal" feature film with special guest Vivi!

Follow us @WheresHerOscar or reach out to us at wheresheroscar@gmail.com MOVIE DETAILS: Director: David Lynch Starring: Justin Theroux; Naomi Watts; Laura Elena Harring; Ann Miller; Robert Forster
We talk about OUR thoughts and histories with Naomi Watts, always the Academy Award bridesmaid, never the bride.

MOVIE DETAILS: Director: Daniel Barnz Starring: Jennifer Aniston; Adriana Barraza; Felicity Huffman; William H. Macy; Anna Kendrick; Sam Worthington
We're feeling disillusioned by our jobs today and discussing the slow march of despair in capitalism (or something like that). We also talk about how a Videodrome remake would work and our love for "people hate their jobs" movies.
Brad Bird, the Incredibles, Pixar (even though this isn't a Pixar movie) and more in this discussion on The Iron Giant!
Early 00s dark-comedy, cynical suburban despair, it's all our favorites in a movie that we aren't too fond of! But with a Jennifer Aniston performance that we think is great! Keep in touch on Twitter: @WheresHerOscar
A dense episode (and supposedly funny). We talk Nicole Kidman as a comedy queen, the defense of Adam Sandler comedies, and Jennifer Aniston leaving this (largely) unscathed! Follow us on Twitter @WheresHerOscar!
A little intro to our second season on Jennifer Aniston and another little intro for Lily who is joining us our 3rd co-host! So many changes, so much fun! We are having a great time! Honest to God, it's a great time! We are having so much fun! SOOOooo much fun!
We reflect on the Amy Adams season, talk about her upcoming projects, and discuss what we would like to see her do in the future.
We finally talk about the cult movie! It's definitely a movie! RIP Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

A run of the mill biopic with great Oscar success, who would've thought. But we do get into the 2010 THR Actress Roundtable, so you really should listen just for that!
We LOVE messy sisters so we love this movie (despite being largely okay and falling apart after being dissected for over an hour).
What does it even MEAN to be a Muppet? Why don't they make movies like this anymore? Tune in for a discussion on all things 2011 Disney and our desire for crowd please comedies.
Today we're talking food, blogs, and Chris Messina's charm, it's our Julie & Julia episode! Annabel joins us to discuss our thoughts on Nora Ephron, the weirdness of making a movie on Julie Powell, and Amy Adams' bizarre haircut.
We finally get to Amy Adams's first Oscar nomination, a movie (perhaps an underrated gem) that we both ADORE. Listen to us talk about 00s awardsy indies, pregnant stunt doubles, and how much we love Amy Adams.

We're back from our finals hiatus! On this episode we discuss accents, outfits, Oscar bait, and the David O. Russell of it all.
We shook things up for this episode and decided to talk about our ideal Oscar line ups for the 2020 Oscars.
We're joined this week with special guest Kerry to take a stroll down memory lane and talk about the critical-flop-blockbuster Night At The Museum: Battle Of The Smithsonian! Digressions include Juergen Teller, Naomi Watts, and the many children's movies of the late 2000s. Follow us on Twitter @WheresHerOscar. Follow Vee on Letterboxd @imvee.
We talk about Naomi Watts, Patricia Clarkson, Nicole Kidman, impending lawsuits and (briefly) about Vice. Find us on Twitter at @WheresHerOscar.
Here's an episode that is literally not about the movie we're talking about! Want us to talk about Naomi Watts' unemployment, this year's Oscars and just EVERYTHING about Nicole Kidman? This is the episode for you! Want us to talk about Vice? Maybe try another day. (If you are just finding this podcast and want this to be your first episode, maybe choose another one because this episode is not like the others...) It will be released in two parts because I (Vee) am pretty sure it's cursed with all the bad energy we got from literally everyone we talked about in this episode. Happy listening! Big thanks to Vanessa for joining us. Twitter: @Where's Her Oscar
Our oldest Amy movie and possibly our favorite so far! We discuss 90 edgy teen comedies, American pageants, and the Kirsten Dunst of it all.
We cover Spike Jonze's sci-fi(?) romance with a very minor key Amy Adams. Joaquin Phoenix and Scarlett Johansson are also there, but no one was able to snag that Oscar nomination for an Oscar winning movie.
We have our very first guest episode. Lily comes on to talk about 2016 Tom Ford psychological thriller and we go through a bit of fantasy casting, talk about high school level motifs, and say "What about Jake Gyllenhaal?" Follow us on Twitter @WheresHerOscar
We're back this week to discuss Tim Burton's 2014 feature, Big Eyes starring Amy Adams and Christopher Waltz. Hear us talk about movies about women artists, Lana Del Rey movie singles, and Vee's desire for things to be as weird as possible in any movie. Twitter: @WheresHerOscar
We talk about the Adams-Close Oscar trajectories, the other 2020 releases, and are very obvious opinions about this movie. Twitter: @WheresHerOscar
For our debut episode, we discuss Amy Adam's perhaps most iconic role as Giselle in Enchanted. We discuss how big musicals were this year at the Oscars and also out history with the movie. It's our first episode, so the audio is a little wonky. It'll get better from here, we promise! Follow us on Twitter @WheresHerOscar
