Amy Adams is a screen icon who is beloved for her immense talent onscreen and her kind persona in real life – but something that’s become a major part of her image is the fact that, even though she has played so many amazing roles (and is even seen by many as one of the great actors of her generation) she’s won zero Oscars. Of course, awards aren’t everything – and the fact that she hasn’t won doesn’t erase her great body of work – but it does make one wonder: what is it that's kept her from being fully recognized? In an interesting way, Amy’s struggle mirrors the career frustrations of many talented women. So let’s take a deeper look at what’s really going on
