    It’s always interesting how the Oliviers differ from the Tonys. Like Idina Menzel won the Tony for the Broadway production of Wicked, yet she didn’t even receive an Olivier nomination for the West End production

    Like how Mark Harris pointed out how appropriate it was that Daveed Diggs won Best Featured Actor in a Musical at the Tonys for playing Lafayette/Jefferson in “Hamilton”, while the London production the actor playing King George won the Olivier Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Musical.

    It always seems to be a tough category, but Best Actress in a Musical is going to be a bloodbath this year. Adrienne Warren, Karen Olivo, Mare Winningham, Sharon D. Clark, Shereen Pimentel, Katrina Lenk, Carmen Cusack, Elizabeth Stanley, even Jeanna de Waal. All of them could be nominated and I could see a path to the win for about 80% of them.

    While Six isn’t typically what I think Tony voters would necessarily go for, I don’t really see another alternative this season for Best Musical. They historically don’t love jukebox musicals which really cuts down on the options. At least it is a creative way to tell the story, despite it being very concert-ish. Also Six did well at the Olivier’s so I don’t see it being snubbed across the board come nomination morning during a year when there are few completely original musicals.

    If Flying Over Sunset is well received, that could well dominate the field. And the sampling of music released so far has been promising.

    It’s also the reason why they had two nominees for revival last year instead of combining the musical categories. Oklahoma was the unfortunate winner.

    I think you’re telling on yourself a bit here. It’s okay to think the WSS revival is “terrible” and it’s okay to think Oklahoma! winning is “unfortunate”, but saying both in the course of the same conversation shows you aren’t exactly in step with conventional Broadway taste.

    I do think that Betrayal is the current frontrunner to win Best Revival of a Play. It could follow a similar trajectory to A View From the Bridge a few years ago where despite that production ending its limited run earlier in the season, it was still so well-regarded for offering audiences a completely different take on a classic work, that people couldn’t stop talking about it long after it was gone. Similar to how some of the recent Tony winners for Best Musical Revival have gone to productions that did completely original takes on older shows (which I’ve previously mentioned in this thread).

    Is A Soldier’s Play considered a revival even though this is its first time on Broadway? If so, don’t sleep on that one. The reviews were great.

    While we don’t know how eligibility is going to work out for the acting categories for A Soldier’s Play yet, I think Blair Underwood will go Lead while David Alan Grier and Jerry O’Connell will both contend in Featured.

    I think J. Alphonse Nicholson is more likely than Jerry O’Connell for A Soldier’s Play. He has a good, tragic role and has been getting standout reviews. He’s not as known a property as O’Connell, but a star-making role for a newcomer could also get Tony recognition.

    How are none of the actors from The Lehman Trilogy in your predictions? It’s the frontrunner for Best Play. At least one or all three of Adam Godley, Ben Miles, and Simon Russell Beale will be nominated

    Category confusion. The male categories are pretty strong this year and for TLT we don’t know who will be pushed for awards or what category he’ll be pushed for.

    The “Mank” production spent most of December filming at Kemper Campbell Ranch in Victorville, California. Doyle was keen on using the ranch for “Mank” considering the location has direct ties to the film’s storyline. “Mank,” written by the director’s late father Jack Fincher, tells the true story of Herman J. Mankiewicz as he sets out to write the script for Orson Welles’ “Citizen Kane.” Mankiewicz, played by Gary Oldman in Fincher’s movie, won an Oscar for the screenplay. Doyle teases that “Mank” is “not just a biopic about” the legendary writer.

    Mankiewicz was a notorious drinker and suffered a leg injury in a car crash, so Welles brought the screenwriter to the Kemper Campbell Ranch so that he could work on “Citizen Kane” without distractions. Mankiewicz spent two months at the dry ranch and wrote hundreds of draft pages of the “Kane” script for Welles to edit. Because of Mankiewicz’s ties to the ranch, it was of the upmost importance to Doyle to have the production film there.

    “The place hasn’t changed,” Doyle said. “You get over that hill into that ranch, and you’re in this tiny time capsule. Here you are where Herman Mankiewicz really sat, and stood and wrote this story.”

    In addition to Oldman as Mankiewicz, “Mank” also features Amanda Seyfried as actress Marion Davies, Lily Collins as Mankiewicz’s secretary Rita Alexander, Tuppence Middleton as wife Sara Mankiewicz, and “The Souvenir” breakout Tom Burke as Orson Welles. The film will also reunite Fincher with his longtime composers Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, who won the Oscar for their work on “The Social Network.” Reznor recently told Revolver that he would only being used period-authentic instruments to compose the “Mank” score. The film is set in the 1940s.

    “We’re not gonna be using the modular synthesizer on that one,” Reznor said. “We think we’re gonna be period authentic, so it just creates a new set of challenges.”

    As Wells would call it it is a “wokester” movie.

    Well, if you have to quote Jeff Wells to criticize the movie’s politics, it must be doing SOMETHING right.
