If it does go genderless, I would prefer there be 10 nominees each in Lead and Supporting (not a fan of the fictional/non-fictional idea). But also, why not just have 2 winners for Lead and 2 winners for Supporting by awarding the two highest vote getters in both categories? They can announce winner 1 and 2, either by alphabetical order, or by random order. Have winner 1 come up and give their acceptance speech and then they announce winner 2 and that person comes up and gives their acceptance speech. I just would rather stay with 4 acting winners than only 2.

ReplyApril 1, 2023 at 10:59 am #1205373449but as for Sean Penn, on the other hand… https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/dec/18/madonna-says-sean-penn-never-hit-her-as-she-offers-evidence-for-her-ex-husband
And I’d be on the safe side if I were you in regards to calling Penn “abusive” – https://www.theguardian.com/film/2016/may/04/lee-daniels-apologizes-sean-penn-allegations-abuse-madonna
Comparing Penn’s situation to the Majors’ one isn’t very wise…
Oh I wasn’t even talking about Madonna, I was talking about Robin Wright. I remember going to an event once (in the mid 10s) where Nick Cassavetes was the guest speaker and he mentioned something about Sean Penn’s physical abuse towards Robin Wright. He directed them both in the film She’s So Lovely (1997). But you’re right, I guess it isn’t the same as Majors’ situation since Penn was never charged and it’s all just hearsay. But what Nick Cassavetes said about Penn always stuck with me, and since then, it’s all I think about every time I see Penn on screen.

Sean Penn and Josh Brolin both have a past history of domestic violence and went on to be nominated for the same movie (and Penn won his second Oscar).
ReplyMarch 12, 2023 at 4:35 pm #1205345292Omg Hugh Grant was such an asshole to Ashley Graham during his carpet interview on ABC.
March 9, 2023 at 7:50 pm #1205340831Definitely don’t agree with that actor’s comments in the EW interview, but his utter hatred for The Fabelmans was hilarious lol.
ReplyFebruary 27, 2023 at 7:32 am #1205322084Don’t know if this has already been mentioned, but the only person in this category to have won the BAFTA, Critics Choice, and Golden Globe and then go on to lose at the Oscars is…Cate Blanchett for Elizabeth I. She lost to Gwyneth Paltrow for Shakespeare In Love, who won at SAG and Golden Globe that year before taking the Oscar. Shakespeare in Love also won Best Picture at the Oscars that year…
January 31, 2023 at 5:48 pm #1205278814Its principal producer is Merman Productions which is UK based. Ever since BAFTA tweaked its eligibility rules to allow The Crown and The Night Manager in back in 2016 a show has had to have at least 50% of its production budget coming from the UK to be eligible for the series categories and since the rules were tweaked to allow Killing Eve and Patrick Melrose in back in 2019 a show has just had to be produced by a UK based production company.
Ahh I see! Thanks!
ReplyJanuary 31, 2023 at 5:20 pm #1205278792Not too familiar with BAFTA rules so question for those who are. How is Bad Sisters eligible? Are the BAFTA awards for both British and Irish productions?
ReplyJanuary 30, 2023 at 2:37 pm #1205275140It would be really lovely if both Nick Offerman (The Last of Us) and Megan Mullally (Reservation Dogs) get a Guest Acting Emmy nomination for letting a stranger in their home.

January 24, 2023 at 10:49 am #1205263833Causeway is a small film with a giant heart. Brian Tyree Henry gives the performance of the year, and Jennifer Lawrence, Linda Edmond, Jayne Houdyshell, Stephen McKinley Henderson, and Russell Harvard are all incredible. Please go find this gem, directed by Lila Neugebauer!
I’m so glad the Academy voters listened to me.
