Oscars 2021 Amanda Seyfried Comes To Play This woman is underappreciated. Full stop. I don’t mean as an actress, although possibly that too. But consider this – when you google Mank (after you say “MANK!” to yourself, as is obligatory) do you know what’s listed first under ‘People Also Ask’? “Is Mank Boring?” Imagine that’s By Duana • Apr 26, 2021 09:16 am
Oscars 2021 Carey Mulligan’s Oscar Playbook I have no idea what Carey Mulligan’s feelings are about her awards show season back in 2010 when she was nominated for An Education.

Oscars 2021 Andra Day’s Initial Oscar Outing I think it’s probably for the best that this year went the weird, semi-corporate way that it did. If it had been one of the ‘regular’ Oscar seasons, one of the narratives that would have been pushed loud and long (even more than it was) would have been the By Duana • Apr 26, 2021 07:06 am
Oscars 2021 Chloe Zhao: Bong Joon-ho’s Oscar Successor The hope, of course, is that one day we won’t have to mention the how remarkable it is – for a woman to win Best Director at the Oscars.

Oscars 2021 Oscars Scorecard: It’s something! This year, I attempted to guess every winner of the “Oddscars”—or as they shall henceforth be known, the “total chaos Oscars”—and I did pretty okay. I got 15 categories out of 23 right, which Professor Calculator tells me is 65% correct. Of the 8 misses, 7 were from By Sarah • Apr 26, 2021 06:07 am
