It was Viola Davis's decision. Before the 2016-17 awards season, the veteran performer was given the choice of submitting her performance in "Fences" in the Best Actress Oscar category or the Best Supporting Actress category. She chose the latter, possibly remembering what it was like to be the 2011 Best Actress front runner for "The Help" -- only to lose to her friend and "Doubt" co-star Meryl Streep. Davis has had a phenomenal run as a working actress in recent years, collecting a Tony Award, a Primetime Emmy, a BAFTA award, a Golden Globe, five Screen Actors Guild awards, four Critics' Choice awards, four NAACP Image awards and a slew of honors from critics' groups. She was a juggernaut during the 2016-17 awards season., and became the seventh black woman to win the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress Maybe she should have tried for another Best Actress Oscar nomination.
