In 2019, Glenn Close lost her seventh Oscar race. In 2021, she contends for an eighth time having reaped a Best Supporting Actress bid for “Hillbilly Elegy.” The multiple Tony and Emmy winner now ranks fifth on the all-time nominations list for actresses alongside Geraldine Page (who had to wait till nomination number eight to win) and behind Meryl Streep (21), Katharine Hepburn (12), and Bette Davis (10).
