Bodil Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role

The Bodil Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role (Bodilprisen for bedste kvindelige birolle) is one of the merit categories presented by the Danish Film Critics Association at the annual Bodil Awards. Created in 1948, it is one of the oldest film awards in Europe, and it honours the best performance by an actor in a supporting role in a Danish produced film. The jury can decide not to hand out the award, which happened numerous times between 1950 and 1985. Since 1986, it has been awarded every year.
