Oscars Countdown: Stars Gather at Nominees Luncheon

In “The Danish Girl,” Alicia Vikander’s character brims with tenderness and understanding. In “The Hateful Eight,” Jennifer Jason Leigh’s character Daisy is no fragile flower. Both actresses are Oscar nominees in the supporting actress category. At Monday’s Nominees Luncheon in Beverly Hills, the two women shared how the Academy Awards’ allure has been part of their lives since childhood.

“All the pageantry and the beautiful clothes and the acceptance speeches and the tears, all of that, you get so swept up in it as a kid, so to even be doing this interview is kind of surreal for me,” said Leigh, 54.“I used to watch the Oscars, but that was like watching Cinderella on TV,” Vikander, 27, told ABC News. “It was a very, very distant dream far, far away.”
