After babbling in the last post about Best Supporting Actress, it is only fitting that we extend happy birthday greetings to the great Valentina Cortese. You may recall that her grand and Oscar-nominated performance in Truffaut’s Day for Night was overlooked in favor of Ingrid Bergman’s sweet and amusing cameo in Murder on the Orient Express. However, recognition still came Valentina’s way on Oscar night when the marvelous Bergman used her time at the podium to declare that Coretese, blowing kisses from the audience, should have been the winner. Good old Ingrid. What a sport.
