Exact same sentiment. Didn't expect the Academy to give Sound of Metal the most love it's gotten all season.

I've still yet to see Judas, The Father, and Mank.

I thought it was a great movie but it feels like it'll be one those movies that crop up every other year or so that don't win anything besides best supporting as a signal boost to a lesser known talented performer.

Gladiator is kinda low tier Scott, but Joaquin does a good job and I had a blast seeing Oliver Reed before finally drank himself to death :smith:

And after! I remember how much of a deal the press made of them finishing Reed's final scene after he died and how seamless it was, and then you watch it and it's the most glaring poo poo. Like they didn't even correct the light source.

The whole 'We take care of our own' rings kind of hollow when one of the success stories was about taking care of a life partner after the studio refused to pay out on a pension.



Doing Director so early? Are they wrapping this up by 930 or something?

The father is a really really good movie, but it’s brutal

I couldn't bring myself to watch it, not after I couldn't even watch Frank with how close it hit to home.

I'll agree to some of those notes, Blade Runner is a feast for the eyes and a test of the patience.

Or the 80s and having Cats be the defining cultural moment

What was the theater hell in the 70s, Equus?

70s would be Grease probably, or maybe Chorus Line. For 80s I would think Phantom or Le Mis both bump Cats as being the cultural touchstone. Every honors kid in the tri-state area had the option to go see Phantom in the late 80s early 90s.
