Paquin up for Emmy

Anna Paquin has been nominated for an Outstanding Supporting Actress Emmy for her role in the HBO telefilm Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. Based on Dee Alexander Brown’s classic 1971 book, Bury My Heart leads the Emmy nominations with 17, two more than The Sopranos final season. Despite its many nominations – including Outstanding Direction for Yves Simoneau – Bury My Heart has received mixed reviews, with Variety labelling it “a powerful story limply told”.
