One has already been nominated 19 times (Meryl Streep). Another has made more than 100 films but this is her first nomination (Isabelle Huppert.)

A third stars as one of America's most beloved first ladies (Natalie Portman). A fourth portrays one half of a couple who fought - and won - for her right to marry who she wanted (Ruth Negga.)

The last, who ironically is the favorite to win, stars as a struggling actress (Emma Stone.)

Those are the five impressive women who are up for the Academy Award in the Best Actress category.

I like them all, but think that Meryl Streep is probably the most likely to win while Emma Stone would be the most likable win and Ruth Negga would be the most important win, so I support a win for any one of them.

I am rooting for Natalie Portman to win. I really liked Jackie, since historical films are my favorite. However, these are all talented actresses who would deserve the award!

I am cheering for Natalie Portman, but it is a hard decision as all are great choices this year! So glad I'm not on the committee that has to decide.

I would like to see some unexpected actors and actresses with at the Oscars! I definitely look forward to profound speeches from well known nominees like Meryl Streep, but I hope some of the more unknown, talented actresses like Ruth Negga win.
