Actually there could have been a couple reasons but there's been debate over the course of Oscars season, related to Killer of the Flower Moon's narrative focus. Lily Gladstone's upset loss to Emma Stone was expected for this reason mercurynews.com/2024/03/11/lil…

Started to watch after Oscars. Oh my! Nearly 100 years old, first film to win best-picture holds up, action wise and otherwise. How did they film some of these dog-fighting scenes? So ahead of its time in so many other ways.

Thank you Mark Ruffalo

Well it looks like Jonathan M. Katz has caught Senator Katie Boyd Britt in a pretty significant lie.

With the Oscars tomorrow, I re-visited a story that was privileged to write, about Oppenheimer's 'troubled mistress' Jean Tatlock. She deserves her own movie:

Good statement from Gosling! Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig are largely responsible for bringing to screens the biggest cultural moment of 2023, possibly of the last few years. And Robbie's performance -- yes mostly comic-- was on par with frontrunners.

Both Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie are largely responsible for making the movie that rescued movies and created the biggest pop culture moment of 2023. Robbie's performance was one of the best this year.
