In my research, for “Tech Support” (which will be starting in less than a month), I came across the question which finds itself in the title. My immediate reaction was that this is the only category (excluding male acting, obviously) where a woman has never succeeded in earning a nomination. I, of course, could do the research on this myself but if anyone knows, that would be great!

If not, Mandy Walker could very well become the first this year for “Australia.” (EDIT: I notice Guy has already covered this in another post.)

(Sorry to not be participating in all “The Dark Knight” posting but I don’t know what I can add to what’s already been said. While not flawless, Christopher Nolan has given us a true epic completely in his vision, full of top-notch performances by actors who know what they’re doing.)
