I really enjoyed Lily in KOTFM. But I looved Emma in Poor Things. Whatever the Academy decides on this one is actually fine by me

Actually for all the acting categories, I am pretty much in agreement. I keep going back and forth between Murphy and Giamatti. I loved both performances, but they are so different.

I am fine with RDJ winning Supporting. I think the others were fine. I haven't seen American Fiction yet, so I cannot comment on Sterling (although I am sure he did awesome). 

DJR is a great actress and I loved her on The Holdovers. Haven't seen Color Purple, so I cannot speak about Danielle Brooks (who I only know from OITNB and she was one of my faves there), but all the other ladies while great are not really close to DJR.

Looking forward to Nolan finally getting his first Oscar. Long overdue!! Next I want to see Denis Villeneuve win one, as I find him (and Nolan) to be the best directors of this generation.

Just saw Poor Things and I really hope Emma wins.  Bella Baxter is one fantastic character. And all the stuff that Emma had to do with that character was just phenomenal.

It's too bad Willem Dafoe didn't get more recognition during awards season.  And Mark Ruffalo was great too. 

What a weird movie.  I didn't expect it to be that funny. Loved it.  LOL

The drama over The Holdovers does not seem very well-founded to me. What's baffling is that an established screenwriter (Paddington, Luca) would go to the mat over this when it doesn't look super credible from what I've seen.

All I care about is that Anatomy, Killers and Barbie get some proper recognition, particularly Lily Gladstone. Barbie was as much of a pop New Wave shock to the system IMO as Bonnie & Clyde. Everything else I saw (and I saw most things this year, for once with the exception of Maestro, Rustin, Past Lives and May December, which I will get to post-Oscars) was quite good but are all secondary to me. I do aim to rewatch Oppenheimer today beforehand - it was a bit too overwhelming an experience the first time albeit good, but I am not in the cult of Nolan. So I need to give it a second look. I'm also finally getting to Zone of Interest today.

Yay Emma!! Yay Chris Nolan!  Those are the only two Oscar wins I was hoping for.

Al Pacino was awful.  WTF was that.  LOL.

 

Ryan Gosling's performance was so good.  Probably one of the all time best at the Oscars.

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he fell to his death. So there was a supernatural element.
    • AI has it wrong. David was working as an aide at PV Hospital due to failing to save his brother's life and refusing to continue as a doctor. His true profession was revealed later. Edna had divorced him while he was in Vietnam and he had no reason to be in contact with her. He had no idea that he had a daughter.  Ruth was Ruth Martin, she was still married to Joe, not Jeff. He was not deceiving Ruth as he believed that Edna was his ex. The poisoning story happened late in his run and probably introduced when they knew Gleason was leaving. AI's interpretation of him as conniving seems to based on that short lived poisoning story and other misinformation. For most of 76 he was involved in the Ruth/Joe triangle to the point where Ruth was ready to divorce Joe and leave town. Joe had to have surgery, David operated and Ruth suddenly realized she wanted to stay with Joe despite all the problems they'd been happening. David then got involved with Christina with Jeff and then Edna as complications. And he arrived late 75 not 76.
    • Interesting that they started going into a supernatural direction with ghosts - I don't think they really did that before? I wonder if it was a response to getting put so late in the afternoon and I guess trying to appeal to that former Dark Shadows audience? 
    • That makes sense then! Is there a place where you can read more Daytime Serial Newsletters? They sound very informative. Thank you

    • Yep. Access to the Vault works fine but upon downloading attempts an error message pops up.   Maybe it is just a temporary glitch.

    • I'm pretty sure this ep is  from Dec 73 From the Daytime Serial Newsletter Ian and Valerie Northcote are deeply concerned over Laurie's  life being increasingly dominated by hallucinations and fantasies about Georgina, the former owner of the house the Reddins recently bought and are now living in. Doreen Post (Linda Purl) was involved in that story .Perhaps she was going to be revealed as Georgina's daughter? Wonder how that story evolved and whether it was wrapped up before cancellation? and thanks to @skylark
