This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes writer and podcaster Morgan Roberts to discuss the 1956 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Ingrid Bergman won for her performance in "Anastasia," beating Carroll Baker in "Baby Doll," Katharine Hepburn in "The Rainmaker," Nancy Kelly in "The Bad Seed," and Deborah Kerr in "The King and I." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Bergman.
