Sometimes The #Oscars don't just get it wrong, they get it spectacularly wrong. Here's a list of 20 films that, for one reason or another, failed to receive a single Oscar nomination, and they really should have

A THREAD

1⃣
Bringing Up Baby (1938)
Katharine Hepburn was one of the most Oscar nominations actresses ever, but her outstanding performance in this Howard Hawks classic didn't catch the eye of the Academy. Cary Grant was also on top form here too.
#Oscars
2⃣
His Girl Friday (1940)
The Oscars didn't like Cary Grant. But they hated director Howard Hawks. (Rio Bravo, The Big Sleep, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes) He received an Oscar Nom in 1942 then had to settle for an honorary 'apology' award in 1975. He died 2 years later

"As I travelled looking for the film's lead actor, I realised that we are filled with talent. The non-actors were so good and exactly what I had imagined.
@PanNalin

#MakingIndiaProud #FeatureFilm #BhavinRabari #Gujarat #IndianCinema
60 of them were shortlisted, 6 were taken, and the roles they were to play were decided.", says writer-director #PanNalin on the recently #Oscars2023 nominated #ChellowShow.
Set in rural Gujarat, the film is the story of a 9-year-old boy who begins a lifelong love affair with cinema when he bribes his way into a rundown movie palace and spends a summer watching movies from the projection booth.

Remembering George Silk on his birthday 🎂
📷 Daryl John Gregory, 1981
"Capa & Bourke-White saw the big picture and made it 'their war.' George just doggedly wanted to be there and conquer his fears and show people what it was like."
- John Loengard
George Silk
Charlton Heston lifts his two-month-old son Fraser on the set of Cecil B. DeMille's The Ten Commandments. The young boy played the baby Moses.

Verbale Gewalt vs. Physische Gewalt?
Warum behandeln wir beide unterschiedlich und wie kann man überhaupt ein gemeinsames Koordinatensystem etablieren?
Da gibt es doch bestimmt spannende Forschung aus Rechtswissenschaften & Ethik - oder?
... Ist das nur für mich erschreckend, dass wir alle so wahnsinnig schlecht über #VerbaleGewalt / #PsychischeGewalt / #SeelischeGewalt aufgeklärt sind? Krass - es gibt nicht mal einen Wikipedia-Artikel zu 'Psychische Gewalt'! Man wird einfach auf #Mobbing weitergeleitet. ...
Einen exzellenten Beitrag dazu hat natürlich mal wieder das @Dorschlexikon der Psychologie von @HogrefeVerlag:

What happened between Will Smith and Chris Rock at the Oscars was justified (Thread)
#AcademyAwards #WillSmith #willsmithchrisrock
1. Context

Before we get into it we need to understand 2 pieces of context. What Chris Said, and why it was an issue.

First of all, Jada Pinkett Smith, Will Smith's wife who's also an actor has been suffering from alopecia for a decent amount of time already.

Next...
2.
And for someone who's an actor, who's been in the spotlight for her entire career, she's been very open about the fact that she has alopecia.

And the struggles, both physical and emotional, that she's endured because of it.

Which I'd say is pretty brave.

From a bumper 2021 in which sprawling blockbusters finally hit reopened movie theaters, and streaming platforms released more prestige flicks than ever, 10 films remain in contention for the best picture #AcademyAward.
Here's a rundown from @andrewmarszal
u.afp.com/wsud
@andrewmarszal Kenneth Branagh's semi-autobiographical #Belfast has long been viewed as a serious #Oscars contender. It depicts the outbreak of violence in his native Northern Ireland in the late 1960s from the perspective of a nine-year-old boy
@andrewmarszal #CODAfilm centers on teen Ruby, the only hearing member of a deaf household in a small US fishing community. The #Oscars contender, which cast deaf actors in lead roles and features copious dialogue in sign language, has been celebrated as a landmark in disability representation

Remembering Grace Kelly on her birthday 🎂

"When you looked at her picture, you were not looking at her. You were looking at the illusion of her. The camera did more than love her. It was insane about her."

1/. Tonight I happened upon the grave of William Friese-Greene, “inventor of cinematography”

Born William Greene, he added his wife's name

In 1889, Friese-Greene patented his 'chronophotographic’ camera, which could take ten photographs per second, using celluloid film. #Oscars
2/. Any money Friese-Greene earned he ploughed back into his inventions, going bankrupt 3 times & dying in poverty

His son, Claude, continued to his father's work, shooting "The Open Road", offering a rare portrait of 1920s Britain in colour. #Oscars2021
3/. Just 50 years later, a very different type of documentary about travelling through Britain was made

"Black Safari" is about a group of African explorers who go on a safari by boat along Liverpool-Leeds canals to explore "darkest heart of Lancashire" #Oscars #OscarsSoWhite
