Linda Hunt is indeed a wonderful actress.  She is currently featured in Arthur 
Kopit's new play "The End of the World" which is bound for Broadway (though I
saw it at the Kennedy Center in D.C.).  She plays a matronly agent for a     
playright cum detective and got a wonderful ovation when she stepped out into
the footlights.  She got another one at the end of the play and that one had
nothing to do with Oscar.  The play itself is a bit heavy-handed though there
are a few snippets which are very well done.  Those in the N.Y.C area might
check it out.  BTW, Barnard Hughes (of Da, Bob Newhart Show, et al) is also
very good as a Sidney Greensteetish harbinger of doom.
