This movie drama. The lead actress won an academy award. And the movie title is one word and it is a woman's name. I believe is was made some time between 1985-1995 not sure when.

I know this is not a lot of information but is you could help I would be most appreciative.

Do you remember the plot at all?

This isn't enough info for me to find the answer. ;)

A little later than you said, but maybe Elizabeth (1998) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0127536/) ?
