13. "There's nothing more powerful than the odor of mendacity" . . .
. . . from the nominated but didn't win category:

"There's nothing more powerful than the odor of mendacity" — Big Daddy

Burl Ives as Big Daddy Pollitt in the film version of Tennessee Williams' Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958).

James Dean and Grace Kelly were the the original stars cast for the movie, but James Dean died in a car crash and Grace Kelly left acting to become Princess of Monaco. Paul Newman replaced James Dean as Brick Pollitt and Elizabeth Taylor replaced Grace Kelly as Maggie Pollitt. Elizabeth Taylor went on to receive the 1958 Oscar nomination for Best Actress but lost to Susan Hayward for 'I Want to Live!'.
