Marcia Gay Hardenwon an Oscar in 2001 but doesn’t think she’d have what it takes to win again.
“It feels that if you don’t go to a party and shake a hand, you don’t have a chance. Mine was odd because I wasn’t nominated for a Golden Globe, I wasn’t nominated for a SAG,” she revealed. “I feel like I would never have a chance now.”
She continued, “It feels like the machine is a little bit bigger to me, but the glory is still the same, the honor of it is still the same.”
Gay Harden won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in 2001 for her role inPollock. She was nominated again in the same category in 2004 forMystic River.
