OSCAR THOUGHTS
The BAFTA win for Austin Butler seemed to have lifted him over Brendan Fraser in the Best Actor race and BAFTA also seemed to solidify Cate Blanchett's position over Michelle Yeoh, then the SGA's happened last night and it's all back up in the air again.
DGA, PGA and SAG Ensemble wins for Everything Everywhere All at Once have solidified its position for Best Picture and Best Direction.
PGA- TFF nominees were wiped out across the board. TAR, Marcel the Shell with Shoes On and Retrograde were the only TFF films nominated and none won. You could make a bit of a case for Navalny's PGA win for Documentary being TFF-adjacent as it screened prior to the fest's start at Elk Park. Also, TFF touches just a bit on Everything Everywhere All at Once with the special screening of Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and the appearance at the fest of Michelle Yeoh.
SAG- Everything Everywhere won everything everywhere. Ensemble, Actress (Yeoh), Supporting Actress (Curtis) and Supporting Actor (Quan). Brendan Fraser gained back some ground with his SAG win over Austin Butler. That goes back to being a tight race. Yeoh's win did the same in Best Actress with Blanchett and Jamie Lee Curtis's win throws Supporting Actress into a real tizzy.
Quan's win means he is locked and the Ensemble prize seems to lock Everything Everywhere for Best Picture. EEAAO could end up with six Oscars in two weeks time.
this next two weeks are going to be crazy.
