The second time’s the charm for Jennifer Lawrence. The 22-year-old Kentucky native landed the lead actress Oscar statuette Sunday for her tragicomic performance as an emotionally bruised widow in “Silver Linings Playbook.”
Her win comes a month after Lawrence picked up the Golden Globe for actress in a comedic movie and just two years after the actress’ breakthrough performance in “Winter’s Bone” -- the role that first put her on the academy’s lead actress balloting list.
