alisoncooks Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 (edited) In general, I’ve always enjoyed Will Smith as an actor. It feels like this is the inevitable Event that all attractive and popular male actors go through at a certain age. Tom Cruise jumped on that stupid couch. Mel Gibson was exposed as anti-Semitic. Johnny Depp is abusive (and a little weird). *sigh* Why can’t all my girlhood crushes just stay…normal?!

And it leaves me smh even now that Bradley Cooper wasn’t nominated and didn’t win for his role in Nightmare Alley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been serious problems with black actors not recognized by the Academy for at least the past decade. It was a big issue a year ago and embarrassed a crowd that very much considers themselves liberal and fair. The Academy Awards are rarely about the actual best performance. Winning is usually political and done by promoting whatever narrative Hollywood cares about most that year. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farrar Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Of the films I saw, I would have given it to Denzel Washington or Andrew Garfield (Garfield had a heck of a year - he was also so good in Eyes of Tammy Faye). But I didn't see King Richard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
