This week on the season premiere of And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes film critic, writer, and podcaster Karen Peterson to discuss the 1960 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Elizabeth Taylor won for her performance in "BUtterfield 8," beating Greer Garson in "Sunrise at Campobello," Deborah Kerr in "The Sundowners," Shirley MacLaine in "The Apartment," and Melina Mercouri in "Never on Sunday." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Taylor. 0:00 - 8:00 - Introduction 8:01 - 23:53 - Greer Garson 23:54 - 49:07 - Deborah Kerr 49:08 - 1:17:37 - Shirley MacLaine 1:17:38 - 1:38:17 - Melina Mercouri 1:38:18 - 1:58:13 - Elizabeth Taylor 1:58:14 - 2:27:45 - Why Elizabeth Taylor won / Twitter questions 2:25:44 - 2:31:08 - Who was the runner-up?
