1973 Oscar Shouldabeens
I just saw 'Paper Moon' for the first time a few days ago. Wonderful. Absolutely wonderful. The featurette states that it was not a critical hit at the time, which mystifies me and only adds to my contempt for anybody who bemoaned filmmaking in the 70's at the time. But seriously...Tatum O'Neal...not supporting. Really just not a supporting performance at all. Ryan and Tatum O'Neal are on-screen together almost the entire time, and if one of them is going to be considered supporting it's Ryan. Even though he's not.
"How's the despair?"

I think Jason Miller is better remembered as a Pulitzer Prize winning playwright for That Championship Season, as the son-in-law of Jackie Gleason and as the father of Jason Patric than he is as an Oscar nominated supporting actor.
It was a good performacnc, but the character as written in the book was fairly foolproof. I was delighted he was nominated, though at the time it seemed to be a toss-up as to whether he or the legendary Max von Sydow would be nominated in the supporting actor category.
Miller's subsequent on-screen acting jobs in such films as The Ninth Configuration and Rudy were rather forgettable.

I remember being shocked when Miller was nominated in the SUpporting category, although when I saw The Exorcist 20 years later, it struck me that he didn't have all that much screen time, and that it was his PRESENCE that made an impact. (I wonder why he didn't have much of a career. He was certainly a much better actor than he was a playwright.)
I think Julianne Moore, Kidman and Streep should have all been considered leads in The Hours, and none of them should have been nominated. I think Paramount's/Scott Rudin's thinking was that Morre was sure to be nominated as a lead for Far From Heaven, so they should try for a second nominnation in a category where she didn't belong. How delightful that what it ended up meaning was that she got to lose twice. )
If I remember correctly, sUpporting nominee William H. Macy had more screen time than lead actress Frances MacDOrmand in Fargo. in

"Y'know, that's one of the things I like about Mitt Romney. He's been consistent since he changed his mind." -- Christine O'Donnell
I think you have to be some sort of a ''name'' actor to get pushed for the lead award.
A reverse case was Nicole Kidman who had little screen time in The Hours yet won in the lead category. Julianne Moore who probably had a little more screen time than Kidman in the same film got relegated to the supporting slot simply because she is a lesser ''name'' than Kidman - for now at least.
