Award Season Campaigning Amanda Seyfried in the lead? Like Maria, I haven’t yet started The Dropout, starring Amanda Seyfried as Elizabeth Holmes. Mostly because I’m still catching up on so many other shows – like the other tech scammer show that’s on right now: WeCrashed, with Anne Hathaway and Jared Leto. And the thing with that By Lainey • Apr 13, 2022 12:59 pm

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

Titled Mank, it is a biopic of Herman Mankiewicz, the screenwriter who co-wrote Citizen Kane, among other things (including an uncredited draft of By Sarah • Oct 08, 2020 03:03 pm
Amanda Seyfried Margot Robbie is not my Carole Baskin Have you watched Tiger King yet? I feel like it’s the show of the moment. Does anybody care about Love is Blind anymore?
