Imitation of Life
Moore's performance in the remake of "Imitation of Life" (1959) as black housekeeper Annie Johnson, whose daughter Sarah Jane (Susan Kohner) passes for white, won her a nomination for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. She was also nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture for the role. When the two versions of "Imitation of Life" were released together on DVD (the earlier film was released in 1934), one of the bonus features was a new interview with Moore.
