Laurie Metcalf Gets her First Oscars Shot With ‘Lady Bird’

Laurie Metcalf has won three Emmys and a Tony Award in her nearly 40-year year career, but the veteran stage and screen actress still feels uncomfortable in front of a camera. She says even after all her years on "Roseanne," she still finds that a camera recording her makes her feel inhibited. Metcalf is also feeling out of her element as a serious Academy Award contender for her role in the film "Lady Bird," in which she plays the mother to a 17-year-old daughter who is going through a selfish phase. The 62-year-old actress has already gotten supporting actress nominations from the Screen Actors Guild, the Golden Globe Awards and the Independent Spirit Awards. She says she's flattered by the attention, which she also calls surreal. And on January 23, she might add the coveted Oscar nomination to her resume too.
