An Oscar for Michael Clayton?

Agree that she was good or better in ether movies but what she did with an ordinary role in Michael Clayton is definitely award worthy. She fleshed out that character in a way that only a handful of actors can. That character would simply be a two-dimensional villain in the hands of a lesser talent - she made the role human, despite having very limited amount of screentime and dialogues.

That's how I feel about Leonardo DiCaprio. In my opinion, he should have won for either What's Eating Gilbert Grape or The Aviator. Instead, he got one for The Revenant.
