I feel she's been unfairly treated.

After winning an Oscar for "My Cousin Vinny", people say that she's had a bad career. I mean, she was nominated for an Oscar for "In the Bedroom" and "The Wrestler" and was in the Sidney Lumet film "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead" as well as "The Big Short". In terms of hits, she's also in the Marvel Universe. I really don't understand the criticisms.

There's the ongoing whinge about how she shouldn't have won the Oscar for "My Cousin Vinny". Of course, she thoroughly deserved the award; nonetheless the casting of doubt persists.

I think the criticism is because it's a comedy film. It's as if comedies aren't good enough to be rewarded.
