Who won the Oscar for Best Actress in 1973?

For some, it might be hard to believe that the year 1973 was over 50 years ago. For others, it's hard to believe much of anything because they lived through the '70s and frankly there's just not much left upstairs, if you catch my drift.
There's no question that the '70s ushered in an era of experimentation and artistry in film that is still influencing filmmakers today. And this particular actress had an outsized presence on one evening in 1973.
But remember — the year the Academy Awards are held is always after the year the movies actually came out. So think back to the top movies from 1972 and see if you can remember who won Best Actress at the 1973 Oscars.
