I'm only guessing, but I think maybe all or almost all of Farah Fawcett's movies were actually "made for TV movies." So I don't think the Academy would "pay attention" to her. I don't mean that they would do that in a "disrespectful" way; just that her movies wouldn't really be considered a part of the categories they ordinarily pay attention to. She'd be eligible for an Emmy, not an Oscar, for example.
But by the way, I thought her performance in "Extremities" was *astonishing.*
And I haven't seen "The Burning Bed," but I've heard similar remarks about her
performance in that.
i.m.o. she was a
very talented actress!
I'm sure most members of the Academy would agree with that;
and would feel that she VERY much deserved the Emmy she received;
and that she would deserve a really heartfelt tribute at the Emmys Award Show.
