2022 Oscar Nominations List See This Year S Academy Award Nominees

Since the nominations for the 94th Academy Awards were announced February 8, the Oscar race has evolved considerably. Back then it seemed like Netflix’s “The Power of the Dog” was the overwhelming frontrunner. But in the time since, “CODA” has surged dramatically, following rival streamer Apple TV+ going old school and screening the film frequently and judiciously for Academy voting members. IndieWire’s Editor-at-Large and awards expert Anne Thompson released her full list of predictions for the Oscar winners on Thursday, and she believes “CODA” will win best picture, though the other most likely choice still is “The Power of the Dog....

8 Best Lgbtq Movies And Books Celebrating Harvey Milk

As one of the first openly gay politicians in the country to be elected to public office, Harvey Milk was a trailblazer for the LGBTQ community.

Milk was assassinated in 1978, just one year after being elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors.

A League Of Their Own Season 1 Abbi Jacobson Will Graham Talk Series

Co-created and executive-produced by Abbi Jacobson (“Broad City”) and Will Graham (“Mozart in the Jungle”), “A League of Their Own” debuted at Tribeca 2022 on June 13. The TV reimagining of Penny Marshall’s beloved 1992 film of the same name was a “labor of love that has taken most of our adult lives,” Jacobson joked while introducing the pilot episode, which premieres on Prime Video August 12. “We had a chance to talk to Penny before she passed away,” Graham explained....

Relatively newer shows that have found success on ABC are also coming back, including “The Conners,” “The Goldbergs,” and “The Good Doctor.” Though Disney’s upfront event was primarily centered on the company’s existing shows there were a handful of series announcements, including two shows that will premiere on ABC in the fall....

Academy Ceo Dawn Hudson Won T Renew Contract After Term Ends

“After more than 10 years and the incredibly successful opening of our new museum, I’ve decided, when this term concludes, it will be time for me to explore other opportunities and adventures as this can hardly be topped,” said Hudson in a statement. “We’ve achieved so much together that’s been most important to me — our ongoing commitment to representation and inclusion; adapting the Academy into a digitally sophisticated global institution; and creating the world’s premier movie museum that will be the destination of film fans for decades....

Academy Says Will Smith Was Asked To Leave Oscars And Refused

The assault came after presenter Rock ad-libbed a joke about Jada Pinkett-Smith’s hairstyle. Smith went on to win Best Actor for “King Richard,” and later issued an apology calling his actions “unacceptable and inexcusable.” Following the 2022 Oscars, the Academy tweeted that it does not “condone violence.” Now, on March 30, the Academy has doubled down on its stance and ongoing investigation. “The Board of Governors today initiated disciplinary proceedings against Mr....

Andrew Garfield On Martin Scorsese Just A Funny Dude And Film Nerd

On the “WTF with Marc Maron” podcast, the “Silence” actor recalled how nervous he was to work with the legendary Oscar-winning writer-director for the 2016 adaptation of Shūsaku Endō’s novel about 17th-century Jesuit priests in Japan. Adam Driver, Liam Neeson, and Ciaran Hinds also starred. “You go in with everything you imagine you would go in with: total excitement, trepidation, pinching yourself, total awareness of how lucky you are that you are one of the handful of people who have gotten to work with the American master of cinema,” Garfield told Maron....

Andrew Garfield Says Making Spider Man Was Heartbreaking

“I got my heart broken a little bit,” the American-British actor said. “I went from being a naive boy to growing up… How could I ever imagine that it was going to be a pure experience?” He added, “There are millions of dollars at stake and that’s what guides the ship. It was a big awakening and it hurt.” (For context, the first Garfield Spidey film grossed more than $758 million worldwide, while the second amassed just above $709 million....

Anna On Amc Plus Italian Drama Paints A Pandemic World Without Adults

Where to Watch ‘Anna’: AMC+ No one said the fall of civilization was going to be predictable. With that in mind, “Anna” presents an interesting choice: Would you rather have chaos built on the unpredictability of quasi-rational adult actors or built on the “just because” logic of children? In the world of this six-part series, one that sticks mainly to the second option without completely ignoring the first, a mysterious disease has wiped out every adult within range....

As Top Gun Maverick Soars Total Box Office Still Lags

Most box-office reporting this weekend focuses on the unquestionably stunning results for Tom Cruise’s sequel. Through 10 days of domestic play, it’s grossed $190 million ($357 million worldwide). A second-weekend drop of only 32 percent portends that it will go much, much higher and has the potential to become the highest-grossing 2022 release. Its performance deserves all the accolades — but without the misleading reporting. “Maverick” will likely be Cruise’s biggest hit, and among Paramount’s 10 top performers....

Babylon Historical Accuracy Of Era S Drug Use Answered

To many modern-day viewers, cocaine is likely more synonymous with ’80s excess than the supposed glamour of the ’20s. Movies like “Goodfellas” and “Less Than Zero” present cocaine as a party drug of a more contemporary era, so it’s understandable that it would show up in Chazelle’s film, particularly its raucous opening party sequence, as the filmmaker threads historical accuracies with his own special skew. But would it really be the drug of choice for the Clara Bow-esque Nellie LaRoy (Margot Robbie)?...

Beckett Review John David Washington Leads Netflix Paranoid Thriller

In a certain light, “Beckett” might even be the most nightmarish of the lot, as this paranoid thriller from Luca Guadagnino protégé and frequent second unit director Ferdinando Cito Filomarino unfolds with a dream logic that should prove all too real for people who regularly find themselves running from shadows in their sleep. The story is simple to a fault: A couple of very attractive but otherwise normal tourists named Beckett (John David Washington) and April (Alicia Vikander) decide to deviate from their itinerary and ditch Athens for the countryside when the Greek capital is roiled by protests over the government’s latest round of austerity measures....

Best Memoirs From Movie Stars Hollywood

Celebrity memoirs are plentiful, but they aren’t always good. Just because an actor lived through a particularly salacious event doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll reveal any details about what occurred — though it’s always fun when they do. The best movie star memoirs don’t even have to contain much gossip — often, the most entertaining books are the ones that simply shed light on a star’s experiences and an outlook that we’d never get from even the best journalistic profiles....

If you’re not interested in bundling services, Disney+ offers subscriptions at $7.99 a month, or $79....
