Antisocialites Posted February 11 Posted February 11 23 hours ago, Tm4074 said: I'm kind of surprised Anora managed to comeback as the frontrunner in BP since winning CCA, PGA, and DGA. I assumed Sean Baker's indie filmmaking style wouldn't be flashy enough for The Academy to award it BP. although I agree that it's weird to see Sean Baker being nominated and his film possibly taking BP, I feel like it makes total sense with the type of film that Anora is. especially in its second and third act, its 70s-80s New Hollywood's essence along with that black comedy and buddy touch resembles a lot of beloved films from the era like Scorsese's After Hours, May's Mikey and Nicky, Cassavettes' Gloria and Husbands. happy that he's finally getting that recognition that he has been deserving of since Tangerine. 5 1 1

prézli Posted February 11 Posted February 11 Just watched Anora. I can relate to it as a woman. It deserves an Oscar for putting a Slayyyter song in it. 3 1

Kylizzle Posted February 11 Posted February 11 Anorallah praise and momentum in the media peaking right before voting. Poor Brutal Watch / Clunkave / I'm Not Winning / Racista Perez 9
Achilles. Posted February 11 Posted February 11 30 minutes ago, Hector said: I'm genuinely wondering whether Ralph Fiennes will take BAFTA I think he will. Someone British (or at least in a British production) always wins at BAFTA. Hope they go crazy for it and push it to a Picture win.

I didn't even remember which interview it was from, let alone the question. looking up the clip now and yeah, she does make an off-hand remark about "it's the big thing these days" or something, but not necessarily implying it's ridiculous — to me it sounds more like her pointing out how new the concept is (compared to Pam's long career). I would have just avoided this question if I were Mikey, or tried to give a short non-answer. her long elaboration about "keeping the team small" is the reason why people focused on it, I think. 2
hausofdave Posted February 12 Posted February 12 I will say that Brody losing London Film Critics and AACTA is interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if Fiennes wins BAFTA. 1
