It’ll make 2022 even more interesting than it already was. But I’m not counting on it until Apple makes it official. Edited May 18, 2022 by SLAM!

SLAM! Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) A24’s drama film God’s Creatures enters the awards race following its Cannes premiere; most likely nominations are Emily Watson (Lead Actress) and Paul Mescal (Supporting Actor), with potential buzz present for Director, Supporting Actress (Aisling Franciosi), Screenplay, and Score (which was made by the composers of Ozark) if the film takes off.

The twitter reactions made me think the score would be higher than that, and more reviews would help the score climb up a little. Regardless, this film’s above-the-line Oscar chances face an uphill battle. Edited May 21, 2022 by SLAM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually there's at least one movie that inspires boos there. Can't decide if all the awfulness in the world these past few years has rubbed off even on that crowd into being nicer going forward or if they're just liking everything they're seeing for the most part this year.

Not freaking hulu. The Banshees of Inisherin and The Menu are so far the only ones with dates for the fourth quarter so those seem to be their bets at the moment (even though the latter doesn't quite sound like something up the Academy's alley lol). If I had to guess Poor Things will be receiving the late Christmas limited bow followed by January expansion unless Disney's putting all of their December resources behind Avatar.

It’s easier for big budget films to get a Cannes splash without the competition part of it. If people are able to say, “the big budget film lost the Palme d’Or to such and such art film,” that could add a stigma against the film. Also, they may have submitted the film for competition, but it’s ultimately up to the selection committee on where they want to put the film in their program. Also, I bet the put big budget stuff out of the competition out of respect for the smaller art stuff so that the big budget isn’t taking a spot away from an art film. That didn’t stop Cannes from premiering Shrek and Shrek 2 in competition way back when, but nowadays, I think it could. Edited May 26, 2022 by SLAM!

Jake Gittes Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Triangle of Sadness won the Palme d'Or and Broker best actor for Song Kang-ho. Both are distributed by Neon in the US so will presumably get an Oscar push, although neither has overwhelming Drive My Car-level acclaim that would make them serious contenders. James Gray has now been in competition 5 times and has won nothing but Armageddon Time's initial reception seems solid enough that maybe he can finally break into the Oscars especially since for once he's got a distributor that won't bury his movie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
