Scarlett Johansson's "Samantha" in Her.

Well, someone bit.  Correction-- a second someone.  Scarlett Johansson's voice only performance in Spike Jonze's Her has been critically lauded ever since the film premiered as the closing at the New York Film Festival circling the issue over whether a non-traditional performance gain traction in the Oscar race, yet again.  Johansson, who was deemed ineligible by the Hollywood Foreign Press, and really has no chance of a history-making Oscar nomination.  The Detroit Film Critics as well as the Rome Film Festival have swung at the bat for ScarJo however.  Not too shabby all considering.
