an anonymous oscar voter discussing her ballot with the hollywood reporter jesus fucking christ
Oh my god. Read this whole thing if you want to be borderline despondent on the state of prestige cinema LMAO
The worst part is she votes for The Shape of Water in almost every category, but doesn’t even consider Octavia Spencer for best supporting actress in that movie because she thinks Octavia is acting the same role in every movie? Which isn’t true and just seems so much like an excuse.
And she keeps dissmissing Get Out in every category it is nominated in. She keeps saying it’s not oscar worthy.
She also isn’t voting for coco because she said the theater (for a kids movie) was full of noisy kids.
