2017 Emmys: Spotlight on First-Time Acting Nominees13 of 23
Jackie Hoffman: Mamacita, "Feud"
Emmy Category: Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or Movie
With every moment of her screen time, Jackie Hoffman's Mamacita built a figurative bridge between the audience and Jessica Lange's Joan Crawford. We wanted her to flee after Joan threw the first flower arrangement at her, and yet we wanted her to reunite with her troubled friend and employer during Crawford's sobering twilight years. Mamacita also gave audiences who only knew Crawford via the events of Mommie Dearest a wider depiction her day-to-day world.
