* DarkHorseVictory: Her winning the Best Supporting Actress Oscar is one of the greatest upsets in Academy Awards history. It wasn't just how rare a purely comic role wins the statue, but also that Tomei was up against four more established actresses in Joan Plowright (for ''Enchanted April''), Creator/VanessaRedgrave (''Film/HowardsEnd''), Creator/JudyDavis (''Film/HusbandsAndWives''), and Creator/MirandaRichardson (''Damage''). One implausible rumor spread that Redgrave was the rightful winner but that presenter Creator/JackPalance refused to give her the award due to her left-wing politics. Another was that the award cards were mixed up and Palance took the wrong one. These allegations were put to rest after the ''Film/LaLaLand''[=/=]''Film/{{Moonlight}}'' Best Picture mix-up at the 2017 Academy Awards, which showed officials ''immediately'' intervening to set things straight.
