Tiffany Haddish as Dina in “GIRLS TRIP”
Nicole Kidman as Anna Murphy in “THE KILLING OF A SACRED DEER”
Lesley Manville as Cyrill in “PHANTOM THREAD”
Laurie Metcalf as Marion McPherson in “LADY BIRD”
Michelle Pfeiffer as Woman in “MOTHER!”
AND THE WINNER IS:
TIFFANY HADDISH AS DINA IN “GIRLS TRIP”
This is the first win and nomination for Tiffany Haddish.
It’s so rare for me that a comedic performance in a summer blockbuster becomes instantly iconic that I consider it to be one of the greatest performances of that given year. Tiffany’s work as Dina in Girls Trip was such a revelation that I find myself returning to scenes from the film that feature her because this is a performance unlike any other before. Haddish takes complete control as we watch an actress so knowing of her strengths and exploding them to comedic gold. I only hope the best for Tiffany’s future career because her work in Girls Trip is just unarguably the greatest comedic performance in 5 years. Just think of her line delivery of “Bootywhole” or her recreation of how to grapefruit your man. Not many actresses in comedy films would be able to say that they delivered one of these iconic moments but Haddish as Dina delivered both and more so expertly that all I can say is brava to this wonderful turn.
