LOS ANGELES, Feb. 21 (UPI) -- Canadian actress Ellen Page says she does not deserve to win an Academy Award at Sunday's ceremony in Los Angeles.

Page, who's nominated for Best Actress for her starring role in the teen dramedy "Juno," tells ABC's Barbara Walters, "I feel even weird being nominated with people I truly have so much respect for, and people that I've been blessed to meet during the last few months. What's going on in your life when you see Daniel Day Lewis every other week."

Lewis' Best Actress competition includes Cate Blanchett for "Elizabeth: The Golden Age," Julie Christie for "Away From Her," Marion Cotillard" in "La Vie en Rose" and Laura Linney in "The Savages."

The full interview with Page will air on "The Barbara Walters Oscar Special at 7 p.m. EST on Sunday just before the Academy Awards broadcast from Los Angeles.
