Terms of Endearment: Debra Winger vs. Shirley MacLaine

Not so endearing. In the 1983 film Terms of Endearment, Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger played loving mom and daughter Aurora and Emma, but in real life they were total rivals. MacLaine was supposedly fed up with Winger’s antics, including one rumored incident where Winger lifted her dress to fart in MacLaine’s direction. Both actresses were nominated for Best Actress at the 1984 Academy Awards, and MacLaine shouted, “I deserve this!” when she beat out her costar for the statuette.
