Some things to consider before the 93rd annual Academy Awards ceremony, which will air Sunday, April 25, 2021 on ABC: Say what you will about Glenn Close's record of futility at the Academy Awards, the veteran actress continues to impress in one respect. She is now one of the 14 performers who have received at least eight Oscar nominations for acting. They are: Meryl Streep (21 nominations, three wins). Katharine Hepburn (12 nominations, four wins). Jack Nicholson (12 nominations, three wins). Bette Davis (10 nominations, two wins). Sir Laurence Olivier (10 nominations, one win). Spencer Tracy (nine nominations, two wins). Al Pacino (nine nominations, one win). Paul Newman (nine nominations, one win). Denzel Washington (eight nominations, two wins). Marlon Brando (eight nominations, two wins). Jack Lemmon (eight nominations, two wins). Geraldine Page (eight nominatons, one win). Peter O'Toole (eight nominations, no wins). Close (eight nominations, no wins). Close received her latest nomination last week for her supporting performance in "Hillbilly Elegy," directed by Ron Howard and based on the best-selling memoir by J.D. Vance. Interestingly, her co-star in the film is Amy Adams (pictured below with Close), who is winless in six Academy Award nominations. For the record, here are the Close's eight Oscar-nominated roles and movies: Jenny Fields in "The World According to Garp" (1982). Best Supporting Actress. Sarah Cooper in "The Big Chill" (1983). Best Supporting Actress. Iris Gaines in "The Natural" (1984). Best Supporting Actress. Alex Forrest in "Fatal Attraction" (1987). Best Actress. Marquise Isabelle de Merteuil in "Dangerous Liaisons" (1988). Best Actress. Albert Nobbs in "Albert Nobbs" (2011). Best Actress. Joan Castleman in "The Wife" (2018). Best Actress. Bonnie "Mamaw" Vance, in "Hillbilly Elegy" (2020). Best Supporting Actress.

Bob Strauss @bscritic #SLAXX, on #shudder, is a broad, goofy, Canadian one-note horror concept that ends up being more nasty fun than it has any right to be. It's even a thoughtful critique of global capitalism/consumerism, which a film about killer pants has no real business pulling off, either. 9:27 PM · Mar 19, 2021·Twitter Web App

Bob Strauss @bscritic Real life Cold War spy thriller #TheCourier is effective even if it feels like it was made in 1962. #BenedictCumberbatch clearly relishes his role as an English salesman who ends up helping prevent World War III, and pays a staggering price for his everyday, everyman bravery. 9:18 PM · Mar 19, 2021·Twitter Web App

The veteran actor Henry Darrow, who starred as Manolito Montoya in the NBC Western series "The High Chaparral," has died at the age of 87. He died Sunday at his Wilmington, North Carolina home, according to his publicist Michael B. Druxman. The cause of death was not revealed. In a Facebook post on Monday, Druxman wrote: "Rest in peace, my friend. You will be missed." Darrow was born Enrique Tomás Delgado Jiménez in New York City on September 15, 1933. His parents were Puerto Ricans who ran a restaurant. When Darrow was in his teens, his family moved back to Puerto Rico, where the budding actor attended college. He later returned to the United States and pursued an acting career in California. "The High Chaparral," which ran from 1967 to 1971, followed the long-running NBC Western "Bonanza" on Sunday nights. That was no accident. Both series were created by producer David Dortort. "Bonanza" was the story of the pioneer Cartwright family of Nevada in the 1860s. "The High Chaparral," set in the Arizona Territory of the 1870s, starred Leif Erickson as rancher Big John Cannon -- patriarch of a blended family. Darrow became a fan favorite as Cannon's roguish brother-in-law Manolito, the son of a local land baron. The series also starred Cameron Mitchell, Mark Slade and Linda Cristal "It was also the first show to feature a Hispanic family alongside an Anglo family in prime time,” Darrow once said. During the 1974-75 television season, Darrow co-starred with David Janssen in the ABC drama series "Harry O." Janssen played the title character, Harry Orwell -- an LAPD officer-turned- private detective. Darrow appeared as Orwell's San Diego Police Department frenemy, Lt. Manuel 'Manny' Quinlan. Darrow's character was killed off in the first season's penultimate episode. The 1986 horror thriller "The Hitcher" featured Darrow as Trooper Hancock, a Texas lawman determined to stop a serial killer (played by Rutger Hauer). The theatrical film, which also starred C. Thomas Howell and Jennifer Jason Leigh, was remade in 2007. During Season 1 of the syndicated sci-fi television series "Star Trek: The Next Generation," Darrow appeared in the episode "Conspiracy" as the Vulcan Starfleet Admiral Savar. In 1989, Darrow (pictured below with Margarita Cordova) joined the cast of the popular NBC daytime drama "Santa Barbara." He played Rafael Castillo, the father of Cruz Castillo (played by series star A Martinez). In 1990, both actors won Daytime Emmy Awards for their performances. In the early 1990s, Darrow and the Canadian actor Duncan Regehr played father-and-son versions of the legendary 19th-century California swashbuckler Zorro in a series that aired on The Family Channel. (now Freeform). Regehr played the current Zorro, Don Diego de la Vega. Beginning with Season 2 of "Zorro," Darrow played family patriarch Don Alejandro de la Vega. Darrow played Kolopak, the Native American father of Commander Chakotay (Robert Beltran), in two Season 2 episodes of the UPN series "Star Trek Voyager": "Tattoo" (which first aired on November 6, 1995) and "Basics: Part I" (May 20, 1996). SAG-AFTRA @sagaftra We honor the career and achievements of Henry Darrow, the pride of Puerto Rico and a SAG Board member from 1970-73. Our condolences go out to his family. #sagaftramember since 1958. Henry Darrow, Actor on 'The High Chaparral,' Dies at 87 Henry Darrow, the pride of Puerto Rico who starred as the charming Manolito Montoya, the son of a wealthy Mexican land baron, on the 1967-71 NBC Western 'The High Chaparral,' has died. He was 87. hollywoodreporter.com 10:50 PM · Mar 15, 2021·Twitter Web App Robert Beltran @robertbeltran74 The great Henry Darrow has died. How thrilled I was to act with him. He was a gentleman and an artist of the highest rank. His intellectual curiosity, his generous spirit, his joyfulness, were his great attributes. All young actors should study Henry (as I did) and learn. Rest H. 5:48 PM · Mar 15, 2021·Twitter Web App

Let's hope so. It's bad enough that Hattie McDaniel was treated like a second-class citizen on Oscar night in 1940.
