In her first dramatic role in "Can You Ever Forgive Me?," Melissa McCarthy is getting rave reviews for playing author Lee Israel and that will likely pay off with an Oscar nomination. Viola Davis, who won an Oscar for 2016's "Fences," certainly gives the performance in "Widows" to get her back to Oscar night. Lady Gaga rocks it both singing and acting in "A Star Is Born," and it's almost a lock she'll be recognized for it with a nomination. "Roma" actress Yalitza Aparicio, in her first acting role, delivers a powerful performance that deserves a spot with the major stars on Hollywood's big night.
