15 Great Black Performances Completely Overlooked By The Oscars
Samuel L. Jackson, Jungle Fever, A Time to Kill, Django Unchained
One of Hollywood’s leading men, he’s had some really great supporting performances as well. All of which garnered him much praise: a cracked out brother and son to model black family, a vengeful father on trial after racists raped his daughter and an “Uncle Tom-Like” overseer. He hasn’t been nominated since Pulp Fiction in 1995 when he was placed in the Best Supporting Actor category. Such a shame.
