As the Oscars draw near, we're digging deeper into the nominees. Wesley Morris wrote about how, even in a year of history-making nominations, there's still more to do to improve the Oscars. Kyle Buchanan highlighted the six best speeches of awards season so far. Michelle No wrote about the drama "Minari," and how it paints a clearer, and more uncomfortable, picture of the immigrant experience onscreen. Bianca Giaever spoke to midwives about the birth scene in "Pieces of a Woman," which features a performance by the Oscar-nominated Vanessa Kirby. Nicolas Rapold looked back at the history of live-action shorts and how they used to be much more revered in the film industry. I spoke to the director Florian Zeller about a cryptic scene from his nominated drama "The Father." And Joshua Rothkopf wrote about how film festivals, often the first public stop for movies (like "Nomadland") on their journey to Oscar nominations, got creative during the pandemic. |
