Live Poll: Face-Off: Oscarless Shakespeare

The 98th and the 71st Academy Awards have something in common. Both had a film about William Shakespeare as contender in Best Picture and several Acting awards, but in both cases the actor playing William Shakespeare himself was snubbed.

They were Joseph Fiennes for Shakespeare in Love and Paul Mescal for Hamnet

Which of them was most deserving of an Oscar nomination?
