Two Oscar Voters Didn't Vote for Ralph Fiennes' ā€˜Conclave' Performance Because ā€œHe Won Before" (He Didn't)

It is hard to believe that such a consummate actor like Ralph Fiennes has yet to win an Oscar. Clearly, this reality has yet to sink for a few Academy voters.

Variety spoke to two separate AMPAS members who didn’t vote for Fiennes because ā€œhe won before.ā€ They both thought he won an Oscar for 1993’s ā€œSchindler’s List,ā€ but in reality he lost the category that year to Tommy Lee Jones (ā€œThe Fugitiveā€).

ā€œOh sh*t!ā€ one of the voters said after being corrected by Variety. Yet they both voted for Adrien Brody’s ā€œThe Brutalistā€ performance, and that’s despite Brody having actually already won an Oscar for ā€œThe Pianistā€ (2002). Go figure.

I’m not going to whine about Tommy Lee Jones’ awesome ā€˜Fugitive’ performance, but Fiennes was brilliant as the truly evil SS officer in Spielberg’s film — a depiction of genocidal evil that still haunts to this day. Fiennes was also nominated for 1996’s ā€œThe English Patient.ā€

I think we can all agree that Fiennes is a great actor, but his first Oscar will have to wait, and that’s despite again being nominated this year for his performance as the cardinal who experiences a crisis of faith in ā€œConclave.ā€ Fiennes is probably a distant third right now in a race, pitting Timothee Chalamet (ā€œA Complete Unknownā€) and Adrien Brody (ā€œThe Brutalistā€), that’s too close to call.

Let’s take a moment and appreciate Fiennes, 62, who hasn’t necessarily gotten his due over the years. He’s always been overshadowed by more prolific actors, but absolutely deserves to be up there with the greats of the last 30 years.

Fiennes’ filmography is filled with impressive work, some of my favorites include ā€œSchindler’s List,ā€ ā€œQuiz Show,ā€ ā€œStrange Days,ā€ ā€œThe English Patient,ā€ ā€œThe Grand Budapest Hotel,ā€ ā€œIn Bruges,ā€ ā€œThe Red Dragon,ā€ ā€œSpider,ā€ ā€œThe Constant Gardener,ā€ and ā€œThe Menu.ā€

Sad rather than funny. I find the lack of professionalism in people holding such positions ridiculous😤
