expensiveho Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Finally saw this. It was released here just this weekend and I just found out today (out of theaters tomorrow!!!!). Great movie and JLo was truly wonderful. Really happy about the award buzz. I know she'll be delighted with a nomination but it reminds me of Emma Stone in La La Land where it wasn't a traditional showy performance but the charisma carried the whole movie so I hope she at least has a shot. (Of course she isn't as "respected" as an actress as Emma but I'm under the impression she's well liked and respected for her hard work, and it's supporting instead of lead so who knows) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 This was a very good win for STX. Good for them for making all the right calls on this project. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGlass2 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 $150M+ on a $20M budget, and crucially $100M+ domestically. Huge hit for JLo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB33 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I know this is the Hustlers thread but no Joaquin Phoenix on that list is just a sham. Was Time one of the media outlets dragging Joker through the mud? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napoleon Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Pete Hammond’s Notes On The Season: Oscar Screener Viewing Crunch; ‘1917’ Hits The Front Lines Of The Race; JLo And Female-Driven Films Draw The Voters (...) After that it was upstairs to the second reception of the evening with Elbaum, Hustlers director and writer Lorene Scafaria, and star Jennifer Lopez, the latter drawing a constant line of well-wishers to talk about the movie that is consistently looking like it could deliver her first Oscar nomination ever in a role that has produced the best reviews of her film career to date, or at least since Steven Soderbergh’s Out Of Sight at the beginning of her movie stardom. I think it is looking certain she will be a major contender for the Golden Globe (she hasn’t been nominated there since Selena in 1996) and Critics Choice Supporting Actress honors, particularly if you look at the turnout of HFPA members just to this event on Monday. She already has been nominated for two Gothams, a Best Supporting Female nom at the Independent Spirits, and this week was named recipient of the Spotlight Actress honor at the Palm Springs International Film Festival to be presented on January 2nd at their Gala launching the fest which runs thru January 13. She told me the attention she keeps getting for this film has been astounding to her, and she is clearly thrilled. Lopez, Scafaria and Elbaum each told me Hustlers was rejected by every studio and distributor it was presented to until STX came along to give a green light. Apparently the idea, however based on a true story that it is, of a bunch of women drugging their male clients and maxxing out their credit cards, was too much for this still male-dominated industry. This group is having the last laugh as Hustlers has turned into a huge hit. Although there are no plans for a sequel, Scafaria told me she could see it possibly adapted as a Broadway musical some day. You heard it here first, folks. https://deadline.com/2019/11/oscar-screener-1917-jennifer-lopez-hustlers-1202796934/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Interesting movie but i do find it interesting people felt they were justified to act how they did. An interesting look at morality in this film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gwyneth Paltrow won the Oscar for Shakespeare In love, and Sharon Stone was nominated for one for Casino i think Jennifer Lopez can do it. And for the Oscars and the golden globes could be a win when they nominated her because unlike other nominates in past years at least Hustlers is a Box Office hit which could translate in better numbers for the award shows.
