We continue our month-long look at the 2003 Oscar year with what could be the poster child for bland biopics: Sylvia<\/i>. Starring Gwyneth Paltrow as poet Sylvia Plath, the film paint-by-numbered its way to box office and critical failure that inappropriately obsessed over the artist\u2019s untimely death rather than the impact of her work. A perfect on-paper prospect thanks to its famous subject and Paltrow\u2019s recent Best Actress win, Sylvia<\/i> was the 2003 failure that left us gooped.<\/p>\n

This week, we take an extended look at 2003\u2032s rather malleable Best Actress race and discuss the earliest predictions that ultimately fell through. We also discuss Focus Features\u2019 slate being dominated by Lost in Translation<\/i>, why Daniel Craig should never be allowed to play a brunette, and Paltrow\u2019s greatest performance on a movie poster.<\/p>\n
