    I'm so glad it wasn't a political situation that year and that the Academy didn't overlook Paquin because of her age. Her performance in 'The Piano' was out of this world. So raw and passionate and intense in scenes. She really captured the true essence of a child jealous of her Mother's relationships and daring to test the boundaries. Definitely well deserved and my favourite performance ever given by a child in cinema.

    • @reptongeek

    God how I love this win! Here was the child who really deserved to be the youngest Oscar winner ever instead of Tatum O'Neal for that so-so performance in Paper Moon, who was only a year younger and who was nominated in the wrong category anyway. But Anna was sublime. I remember when I first saw The Piano, I thought wouldn't it be nice to see this kid get an Oscar for this. She had the instincts of a seasoned professional. And everybody in that room fell in love with her wordless hyperventilation and petrified stare. Not to mention the cute hat. Beyond adorable. Way to go, Academy.
