Jamie Lee Curtis' Oscar Nomination Is a Win for Gay Hollywood (Collider.com)

After years of snubs, Jamie Lee Curtis is bringing Oscar recognition to performances that blur camp and prestige.

Most important, though, is that Curtis’ well-deserved nomination signals that the Academy is recognizing the work of women who perfectly balance the fantasy and reality on screen in a way that brings fantasy to our reality. For example, in the hot dog fingers universe, Curtis manages to bring the necessary humorous touches to the scenario, while creating genuine empathy for her character. In the film’s initial universe, Curtis authentically brings Deirdre to life through punctuated line delivery, furrowed brows, and a condescending tone. And yet, each of the performances listed above manage to walk the tightrope between exaggerated fantasy and empathetic realism so perfectly that they are simultaneously larger-than-life and down-to-earth. In fact, many camp performances earn their camp status by being so serious that they circle all the way back around to being ridiculous. Over the past several years, it has become a regular occurrence for the Academy to overlook performances like Curtis’ despite their prominence throughout awards season.
