Actress Allison Janney's (jan-ee) latest movie, "I, Tonya," is expected to bring the former ?West Wing? actress her first Oscar nomination next month. Janney plays the mother of U.S. skater Tonya Harding in the film and it takes her back to a world she knows very well. The actress admits she had dreams of being an olympic skater when she was younger. Her dream ultimately didn't come true (she blames her height - she's six feet tall) but she can at least re-live part of it with the film. Margot (margo) Robbie plays Tonya Harding and it focuses on the 1994 attack on her Olympic rival Nancy Kerrigan, which led to Harding being banned for life from the U.S. Figure Skating Association.
