Hermione Baddeley’s nomination for Best Supporting Actress at the 32nd Academy Awards in 1960 stood out because she was on-screen for less than two and a half minutes in the film “Room at the Top.” The film received positive reviews and several nominations, winning two awards. Baddeley’s limited screen time showcased her impressive acting skills and proved that there are no small roles, only small actors. She portrayed a loyal friend in her few scenes, displaying a range of emotions from friendly small talk to intense anger and grief. Her nomination still holds the record for the shortest screentime of an Oscar nominee.
