Of the leading women nominated so far this decade for playing historical figures, which performance is your favorite? Note: I didn't include Michelle Williams for The Fabelmans here because, though inspired by Spielberg's mother, "Mitzi Fabelman" was not an actual person. You all know my choice... Edit: Let me know if you'd be interested in a poll like this for previous decades and/or other acting categories!

I didn't even know Ma Rainey was a real person but I guess she just beats out AdA for me.

I haven't seen the Tammy Faye or Billie Holiday movies, so I can't consider them. But I saw Ma Rainey's Black Bottom recently and I have to say I loved that Viola Davis performance. Very transformative and strong.

Very transformative and strong. I thought for sure you would have picked Kristen Stewart! The flayed-skin vulnerability of Romy Schneider blended with the technical precision of Meryl Streep... It's a flawless performance to my mind.

It's a flawless performance to my mind. She was great, but of this lineup (from what I've seen), I think Viola Davis disappeared into her role the most. It took me time to realize that was her. My favorite thing she's ever done.

Of course now we would add...
Annette Bening as Diana Nyad Lily Gladstone as Mollie Burkhart Carey Mulligan as Felicia Montealegre
My vote would still firmly be for Stewart as Lady Di...

Sticking with KStew, but Gladstone is close.
