well, if you're discrediting her acting awards and accolades, what are you valuing? you said she's yet to receive acclaim, and she's done quite the opposite.

I am not talking about awards and prizes, as some of the most highly regarded actors over the years have taken forever to win an oscar.

Acclaim doesnt just come from awards, it comes from articles in print or tv.
It comes from people talking.
It comes from polls.

The fact that G-Man pointed out that Berry won her award because she was black, proves that people dont necessarily win because they are talented.

Perfect example is Girl Interupted.
Jolie won an award for it, but who has actually seen this movie?
