Long overdue, although...I barely remember her scenes in 'American Gangster.'
I think her character slapped Denzel, but I don't remember anything else that was specially about the performance.

Asha a lot of commentators have mentioned that this is more likely a lifetime achievement-type recognition. I didn't see the movie so I couldn't say. I do remember that Judi Dench won a supporting actor Oscar for being in Shakespeare in Love for only 8 minutes. So it wouldn't be the first time someone was honored for a brief time in a movie. I'm with you, though, I'm glad she got it either way! On to the Oscars ...

If Jennifer Hudson deserved it, Ruby Dee definitely deserves it...

I happened by the telecast on accident and they just happened to be announcing the contenders for her category. It was nice to see her win it.
