He was really the star of this film and the one who made the most impact.

If Susan Sarandon got a nomination, I don't see why Brad didn't.

I agree ryanoconnor-1.

I thought so as well. His acting sort of reminded me of Justin Henry in "Kramer vs. Kramer." Also, Anna Paquin won the year before, I thought that opened a door for child actor getting bigger awards.

Brad Renfro was splendid and definitely oscar worthy but 1994 was an amazing year for supporting actors.I also think John Torturro deserved a nod for his performance in QUIZ SHOW.

Brad wasnt really supporting though was he. He was the lead....and it'll be a lot harder for a child to get an oscar for the lead.
