The marathon that is Awards Season (at least for those of us with jobs in media) finally came to its close last night. As has become tradition, the Run-Through podcast hosts, along with colleagues Taylor Antrim and Christian Allaire, gathered early on this foggy morning to discuss their takes on the 98th Academy Awards. The conversation started off with everyone's best dressed picks. For Chioma, this included Wunmi Mosaku who dazzled in her sparkling emerald green Louis Vuitton dress. The list of best dressed also included Renate Reinsve, another star in Louis Vuitton, and Gwenyth Paltrow in Armani Privé who both sported dramatic slits. Slits were just one of the fashion trends making a splash on last night's red carpet, reminding editors of Angelina Jolie's internet-breaking dress slit at the 2012 ceremony. Feathers were another item in vogue on the carpet and were worn by Teyana Taylor, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Demi Moore, Nicole Kidman, and Best Supporting Actress winner Amy Madigan. A conversation around the many jewels and rare diamonds being worn last night spawned a curiosity about the guards who work the Oscars. Perhaps a 2027 diamond guard get ready with me story is forthcoming?As for two of the biggest categories of the night—best actor and best actress—everyone was in agreement that Michael B Jordan and recent guest of the podcast Jessie Buckley, were chic and deserving winners. Up next, Met gala season!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

The Cinematography Podcast 2026 Oscar Special Jenelle Riley, three-time Emmy-winning entertainment journalist and host, chats with Ben and Illya for our SEVENTH annual Oscar nominations special. With a focus on cinematography, they discuss what they liked, what will win, what should win, and their favorite movies of the year that may not have been recognized. They discuss this year's nominations, including the likeliest Best Picture and Best Director contenders, Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another and Ryan Coogler's Sinners. F1 is also mentioned as an outlier for the category, although the cinematography by Claudio Miranda is excellent. This year's new category, Achievement in Casting, is celebrated as a much needed addition. The cinematography competition is a heated one, with both Autumn Durald Arkapaw and Michael Bauman as favorites, with Bauman recently winning the ASC Award. Some of the snubs this year include one of Jenelle's favorite movies, Life of Chuck. Song Sung Blue also didn't receive much awards love. Last year's awards omitted the worthy film, Thelma. Also discussed: Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Supporting Actress.

What if a horror film could teach us something about faith? In Sinners, music becomes a spiritual force that’s powerful enough to bring people together, challenge oppression, and even pierce the veil between life and death. In this episode of Reel Theology: Where Film Meets Faith, Rev. Brittany and Rev. Trudy explore the film Sinners and uncover the powerful spiritual questions hidden beneath its supernatural story. It’s a haunting movie that weaves together music, history, theology, and horror into an unforgettable masterpiece. Set in 1930s Mississippi, the film navigates faith, family expectations, and the cultural power of music in a deeply segregated society. What begins as a story about a juke joint and blues music soon unfolds into a layered reflection on temptation, survival, oppression, and spiritual power. It’s a vampire film, but it’s also about so much more: ancestral memory, cultural resilience, and the sacred power of music. In this conversation, the female pastors explore themes like: The relationship between music and spirituality Why religious institutions sometimes fear artistic expression African American spiritual traditions and Hoodoo The history of Black music as resistance and survival Theological ideas like temptation, evil, and process theology How oppression shapes community, identity, and belonging Ultimately, the film points toward a powerful truth echoed in Christian faith: Even in the presence of evil, racism, and death — nothing can separate us from the love of God. Watch the conversation and join us as we ask: What can a supernatural film teach us about faith? Want to connect with others about this discussion? Join our Patreon community online! Sinners has been nominated for a record-breaking 16 Academy Award nominations: Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Original Screen Play, Best Director, Best Cinematography, Best Original Score, Best Visual Effects, Best Film Editing, Best Makeup and Hairstyling, Best Costume Design, Best Production Design, Best Sound, and Achievement in Casting Sinners also received nominations for: BAFTA Awards, Critics’ Choice Movies Awards, Golden Globe Awards, Grammy Awards, and SAG Awards. A Note About Awards: While widely praised by critics for its storytelling, cinematography, and cultural depth, Sinners has also sparked conversation about which films receive major awards recognition and why.

Bad Dads Film Review goes full courtroom chaos this week with My Cousin Vinny (1992) — the fish-out-of-water legal comedy where two broke New York kids take a wrong turn into the Deep South… and somehow end up charged with murder because of a misunderstanding that starts with a can of tuna.Sidey finally ticks off a long-standing gap (he'd never seen it), and we break down why this film still works: a tight premise, a brilliant “outsider vs small-town system” vibe, and a courtroom structure that's way smarter than it has any right to be for a broad comedy. Joe Pesci turns up looking like he's wandered in from Goodfellas in cowboy boots, tries to blag his way through Alabama procedure, and gets repeatedly threatened with contempt by an all-time stern judge (Fred Gwynne, aka Herman Munster).What we talked aboutThe opening setup: poverty-tour Americana, the road trip, and the tuna “crime of the century” that accidentally feeds the tension.Mistaken confession comedy: how the boys basically incriminate themselves… for the wrong offence.Vinny's legal “credentials”: six tries at the bar, no trial experience, and a running battle with courtroom etiquette (“judge” vs “your honour”, the suit, the procedure handbook).The judge dynamic: why Fred Gwynne is the perfect straight man and how the contempt/lock-up beats become a recurring gag.Mona Lisa Vito (Marisa Tomei): the film's secret weapon — and why her role isn't just “girlfriend”, she's the brain that solves the case.Courtroom mechanics: cross-exams, witness deconstruction, and why parts of this film get referenced in law-school conversations as a simple example of dismantling testimony.The car/tire evidence: the key pivot from “they're screwed” to “hang on…” and the satisfying payoff when the story flips.Does it hold up? Runtime bloat (two hours is generous for this kind of comedy), how a lot of the plot collapses in the internet era, and why it's surprisingly not as offensively “of its time” as plenty of early-90s comedies.The Oscar chat: why Tomei winning Best Supporting Actress felt weird for a comedy… and whether it was actually deserved.Standard warning: we spoil the beats as we go, because that's the whole fun of a courtroom film.If you want a movie that's basically “competence porn disguised as a daft comedy” — where the final win is earned by actual reasoning rather than magic — this one's worth your time. (And yes: Tomei still, somehow, only gets more powerful with age.)Streaming note from the episode: available on Disney+.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

Nineteen Seventy-Six. America's bicentennial was a great year for cinema, with films like A Star is Born, King Kong, All the President's Men, Carrie, and The Omen heating up the box office, and instant classics Rocky and Network earning the most accolades. After a six-decade career in the director's chair, Alfred Hitchcock released his last film, Family Plot, around the same time that an up-and-coming young director by the name of Martin Scorsese released his breakout hit, the fifth film of his budding career. Centered on a disillusioned New York cabbie played by Robert De Niro, this rain-and-neon-soaked meditation on summer in the city proved to be a defining outing by both actor and director. With a cast including Cybill Shephard, Albert Brooks, Peter Boyle, Harvey Keitel, and a very young Jodie Foster, the film racked up awards, including the Palme d'Or at Cannes and four nominations at the Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor for De Niro, and Best Supporting Actress for Foster. Despite controversies over its content, the film was hailed as a hit. Now, fifty years later, we're catching a ride with Taxi Driver and talking to you about it!

It's officially that time of year again: Oscar season! We're now just a few weeks away from the 98th Academy Awards and to celebrate, over the coming days and weeks we'll be posting conversations about movies in the mix for all sorts of major awards at this year's ceremony (not just the writing categories). We have of course ticked off a few of the front runners already on the show in recent months - scroll back in your podcast feed to hear our chats with Ryan Coogler about Sinners and Chloe Zhao about Hamnet. But there's always room for more, right?Which brings us to Weapons – writer-director Zach Cregger's astonishing Hansel and Gretel-esque horror fairy tale, structured like Paul Thomas Anderson's Magnolia. The film hit cinemas last summer and quickly became a surprise box office smash, earning a Best Supporting Actress nomination for Amy Madigan along the way. It tells the tale of a town in Pennsylvania who wake up one morning to find their children missing. Ring camera footage reveals that at precisely 2:17am, an entire class of kids – bar one child – got up and ran from their homes, running through the night towards an unknown destination, with their arms spread wide. The film grapples with the aftermath of that mysterious event, zooming in one-by-one on members of this community as they wadde through the trauma, the confusion, the suspicion, the guilt. Julia Garner plays the alcoholic teacher of the class that disappeared. Cary Christopher plays Alex Lilly, the sole kid remaining. And Josh Brolin is in the mix too, as a dad besieged by strange dreams – including one of a giant assault rifle in the sky that doubles up as an alarm clock, in an image that set the internet ablaze with debate.What does it all mean? In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Zach responds to the many different interpretations of the film among film fans – including the suggestion that it's a response to the ongoing epidemic of school shootings in America. He tells me what he's come to understand he was working through while writing the script – and we dig into details about his original draft for the film, titled Dancing In The Head, which began with 27 suicides and at one point had an entire segment dedicated to the inner-life of the film's terrifying antagonist, Aunt Gladys.

It's awards season - and one name that keeps cropping up is Teyana Taylor.She's nominated for her first Oscar, for her role in One Battle After Another, and has already won the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress and her latest album was just nominated for the Best R&B Grammy.For many, it would appear Taylor has burst on to the scene from nowhere - but for those who know her, these nominations are the culmination of more than two decades of work in the industry.Signed at just 15 to Pharrell's record label, appearing in a Jay-Z music video and choreographing a dance for Beyonce, her early years in New York's Harlem weren't exactly the usual teenage experience.Her 16th birthday was immortalised on the small screen as part of MTV's My Super Sweet Sixteen series, before she released her first record and began acting. Now a mother-of-two, Taylor has released four albums to date, starred in her own reality TV series and will make her directorial debut next year.So, as Hollywood prepares for the award's night of the year, Stephen Smith examines how she got here.Production Team: Presenter: Stephen Smith Producers: Keiligh Baker and Katie Solleveld Production Coordinators: Maria Ogundele and Gemma Ashman Sound: James Beard Editor: Justine LangArchive: MTV The Golden Globes Warner Bros E!

Let's talk about those Oscar Nominees! In 2025, movies began with an incredibly slow start, indicating a worrisome year. The Summer was met with real blockbusters and quickly fueled trust in moviegoers again. The Fall and Winter brought upon some of the best quality films, with a variety of unique stories, perspectives, and innovative filmmaking from directors, actors, composers, and crews. 2025 reminded us that the film industry can thrive not only on sequels, and why we need both financially and culturally. With the official Oscar Nominees upon us, join Popcorn for Breakfast as we anticipate the best, worst, and forgotten nominees in the most prestigious categories.

Tune in Friday, January 16, 2026 @ 7pm EST/4pm PST/6pm CST for the next “He Said, He Said, He Said Live!” A Look atthe World from A Seasoned Black Man's Perspective… because one perspective isn't enough for “Let's Get Newsy XL (40).” Alvin, Bobby and Shawn turn up the volume with Let's Get Newsy XL — Episode 40, and the conversation is as big as the moment. We're starting with Washington, where the House has passed a three-year extension of ACA subsidies with bipartisan support, including 17 Republicans crossing the aisle—raising real questions about healthcare, politics, and what compromise looks like in this climate. From there, we shiftto a powerful human story as Vietnamese Buddhist monks make a 2,300-mile pilgrimage from Texas to Washington, D.C., carrying a message of peace, loving-kindness, and compassion that feels especially urgent right now. We'll also dig into stories that aren't getting the attention they deserve, including serious questions surrounding the killing of Keith Porter by an off-duty ICE agent in Northridge, Los Angeles, and why so little has been said about it publicly.Internationally, the Nobel Institute has reportedly rejected an unusual request involving Maria Karina Matata's office and a proposal to share a Peace Prize with Donald Trump, while closer to home, Yang and Matt Rogers are urgingsupporters not to waste money on Jasmine Crockett's Senate run. Add to that FIFA refunding roughly 16,000 members ahead of the 2026 World Cup amid U.S. boycott concerns, and there's no shortage of news to unpack. And then it's on to entertainment, where awards season is already heating up. Teyana Taylor has taken home a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress, Sinners is dominatingthe conversation after winning Best Cinematic and Box Office Achievement, and rivalries in music and film have everyone talking. Mary J. Blige is set to launch a Las Vegas residency in May 2026, sharing the spotlight with Bruno Marsas his tour kicks off the same month, while Jill Scott returns with a new solo project that has fans eagerly waiting to see what she brings next. Plus, the guys break down the fashion hits from the Golden Globes and give their take on who understood the assignment. It's news, culture, music, style, and unfiltered conversation—all in one place.

On episode 322 of the AwardsWatch podcast, Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson is joined by Executive Editor Ryan McQuade and Mark Johnson, aka The Awards Alchemist, to give their predictions for the upcoming Critics Choice Awards taking place on January 4, 2026. Recording the day after Christmas, the trio give a short version of their holiday experience (wine, so much wine) and then jump right into predicting who they think will be the winners of the 31st Critics Choice Association Awards, as well as reveal what some of our own votes were, including some races that feel very close. With Critics Choice happening a full week before the Golden Globes, will the group rely on being Oscar predictors or tastemakers as the first televised org of the season? While it feels like it's a head to head fight between One Battle After Another and Sinners in many categories--all of which is great for Warner Bros--some categories could be the beginning of a season-long coronation, like Amy Madigan vs Teyana Taylor in Best Supporting Actress and Jessie Buckley vs Rose Byrne in Best Actress. Best Actor could be a threeway race between Timothée Chalamet, Leonardo DiCaprio and Michael B. Jordan, although we're seeing Chalamet triumph here. This podcast runs 1h26m. We'll be back soon with a Best of 2025 wrap-up. Till then, let's get into it. You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. Music: "Modern Fashion" from AShamaleuvmusic (intro), "B-3" from BoxCat Games Nameless: The Hackers RPG Soundtrack (outro).
In this episode of Total Health in Midlife, Elizabeth Sherman pulls back the curtain on one of the biggest reasons women end the holiday season feeling exhausted, resentful, and disconnected from themselves: the Martyr Myth.If you've ever found yourself doing everything for everyone else—wrapping the gifts, cooking the meals, organizing the schedule—while telling yourself, “It's just easier if I do it,” this episode will hit home. Elizabeth explains why high-achieving women so often fall into this role, how over-functioning quietly destroys your health, and why taking your hands off the wheel (even a little) might be the most healing thing you do this year.With a mix of humor, tough love, and compassionate truth-telling, she'll show you how to stop running on fumes and start reclaiming your energy, boundaries, and self-respect. Because you can't keep calling exhaustion “love” and burnout “tradition.”This is part one of Elizabeth's 4-part Holiday Health Series, helping midlife women feel good in their bodies, enjoy the season without guilt, and step into January energized instead of depleted.The Biggest Problem Midlife Women Face Regarding Holiday BurnoutMost women in midlife carry the invisible load of making the holidays happen for everyone else. From meal planning and gift buying to emotional management and conflict prevention, they do it all—and believe they don't have a choice. This constant over-functioning creates chronic stress, hormonal imbalance, fatigue, and emotional burnout.The root issue isn't lack of willpower—it's the belief that “no one else can do it right.” Over time, this mindset trains everyone around you to under-function, leaving you overworked and unseen. You think you're being helpful, but your body and nervous system are paying the price. The result is a cycle of exhaustion, resentment, and poor health that repeats every holiday season.To break the pattern, you must understand that control has a cost. Every “I'll just do it myself” moment erodes your energy, immune system, and ability to rest and recover. Recognizing this is the first step toward reclaiming your time, your well-being, and your sanity.WHAT YOU'LL LEARNWhy the “holiday martyr” mindset keeps women trapped in exhaustion—and how to finally step out of itHow over-functioning and people-pleasing create chronic stress and physical symptoms in midlifeSimple ways to let go of control without letting everything fall apartWhat it looks like to model real leadership and love through delegation and boundariesHow to enter January proud, not punishedWhat You Can Do Right NowStart by noticing where you've taken on responsibility that doesn't belong to you. Choose one low-risk task to delegate—something that won't ruin Christmas if it's done imperfectly. When someone else does it, resist the urge to hover, correct, or redo it. Every time you stay quiet and let them learn, you retrain your family to participate instead of depend.RESOURCESFeel Good Holiday PlaybookEpisode 243 — The High-Functioning Co-Dependent with Sara FiskEpisode 123 — How People Pleasing Impacts Your HealthEpisode 127 — Best Supporting Actress in Your LifeGet full show notes and more information here: https://elizabethsherman.com/hhs-4

We continue our look at Los Angeles-set neo-noir films, this time with the 1997 Academy Award-winning L.A. Confidential. Russell Crowe, Guy Pearce, and Kevin Spacey star as three very different LAPD detectives in a changing city where some cops embrace the corruption, some look the other way, and some are determined to root it out. An investigation into a series of murders in 1950s Los Angeles threatens to expose what's really going on beneath the sunny, shiny surface. Based on the novel by James Ellroy, L.A. Confidential was directed by Curtis Hanson and also stars Kim Basinger, James Cromwell, Danny DeVito, David Strathairn, and Ron Rifkin. It was nominated for 9 Oscars including Best Picture, winning two: Best Supporting Actress, Kim Basinger; and Best Adapted Screenplay, Brian Helgeland and Curtis Hanson.

On the fifty- first episode of All the Film Things, my friend and ATFT regular, writer/ director Samy El- Kamel is back for an analytical discussion about Darren Aronofsky's 2000 psychological drama classic, Requiem for a Dream! This episode is spoiler- filled and contains explicit language.Darren Aronofsky's sophomore feature, Requiem for a Dream, continues to be talked about today yet it's a curious case as it's respected but beloved may not be exactly the perfect word. This film is often regarded as "the best film you'll never rewatch" due to its bleak but impactful ending. Requiem for a Dream follows four people, all connected to Harry Goldfarb (Jared Leto), who are striving to achieve their dreams in the most dangerous, self- destructing ways through their addictions. While Harry's mother Sara (Ellen Burstyn) tries her hardest to lose weight to look her best on television, he along with his girlfriend Marion (Jennifer Connelly) and friend Ty (Marlon Wayans) are addicted to heroin. The three of them hope to turn their ideas of being successful businessmen into a reality but the need for heroin persists. Though widely considered a psychological drama, Aronofsky considers this film an “urban horror film” in the sense that the film captures a dream that turns into a nightmare. This film is based on Hubert Selby jr's novel published in 1978 and Aronofsky was happy to involve Selby in the making of this film (he even makes a cameo towards the end!). Even though Requiem for a Dream is still celebrated today, the film only earned one Oscar nomination in the "Best Supporting Actress" category for Ellen Burstyn. Of all the films I have seen, there is nothing quite like Requiem for a Dream from the cinematography to the editing to its lasting impact which has made me eager to devote an episode to the film.This is Samy's fourteenth time on the podcast, sustaining his place as the second most frequent guest on the show! I had been wanting to do an episode on Requiem for a Dream for over three years now and it was a hard topic to pitch to others. Those who have yet to see the film were hesitant to watch it while those who have seen the film, did not want to revisit it. Thankfully Samy, although slightly reluctant, was up for the challenge. While it is hard for both of us to say this is one of our favorite films, we have a deep respect for it and would probably regard it as one of the best films we've ever seen. This episode was recorded on September 18, 2025. Samy recently premiered his latest short film, “Anatomy of a Panic Attack” at the “Take it or leave it” short film showcase at MOCA Jacksonville. While the short has not yet been released online, Samy's short film "Waveform" was recently screened at the Jax Fuse Film Festival. Watch short films "Waveform", "Neurafridge", and more of Samy's past work by subscribing to his YouTube channel, Barefoot Python Media, by clicking this link.In this episode, Samy and I talk about our first experiences watching Requiem for a Dream, each character's motivations for taking drugs, and why people should challenge themselves to watch the film at least once. While Samy discusses the impact of Sara Goldfarb's storyline, I explain why the role of Harry Goldfarb is perfectly aligned with Jared Leto's trademark character type. All this and much more on the latest episode of All the Film Things!Background music created and used with permission by the Copyright Free Music - Background Music for Videos channel on YouTube.
"Hacks" costar Hannah Einbinder said "Free Palestine" during her acceptance speech for Best Supporting Actress at the Emmys on Sunday. Questioned by the press afterward, Einbinder said she has friends in Gaza, adding, "I feel like it is my obligation as a Jewish person to distinguish Jews from the state of Israel, because our religion and our culture is such an important and longstanding institution that is really separate to this sort of ethnonationalist state." I've followed Einbinder on Instagram for a long time because she's been one of the few people in Hollywood consistently using their influential voice to oppose this genocide, and it is very good that she said these things. Hopefully we see much more of this. But right now I can't help thinking about how unforgivable it is that all the other Hollywood celebrities haven't been using their platforms at these events to call for an end to the Gaza holocaust this entire time. For two years this nightmare has been normalized in the eyes of the public with the assistance of the vast conspiracy of silence between all the people with the largest and most influential voices in our society.

Send us a textSPECIAL NOTE: SEASON 15 OF THE GOOD, THE POD AND THE UGLY CELEBRATES THE USE OF THE PRACTICAL AND DIGITAL EFFECT KNOWN AS THE SQUIB. IRL GUN VIOLENCE IS INTOLERABLE AND RENOUNCED BUT... CINEMATIC VIOLENCE WILL BE CELEBRATED IN A WAY THAT MAY DISTURB SOME LISTENERS. This week TGTPTU covers the film Elephant, no not the 2000s school-shooter mood piece by Gus Van Sant filmed in Portland, OR and covered previously and paired with Scarface (1983, not the earlier, black-and-white 1932 Howard Hawkes version) in Episode 8 of this Squib Season (it's Season 15 after all, not Season 14's Redux where the hosts covered films already covered) but, rather, the 39-minute, made-for-British-TV short film directed by Alan Clarke also entitled ELEPHANT (1989). Chosen by host Thomas for its un-celebratory violence, the film tracks with Clarke's influential, wide-angle following shots (camera, not bullet) people who shoot other people (with bullets, not cameras) in mostly silent milieus but for environmental sounds, mostly very bloody. (As mentioned by cohost Ken, and for more on this camera placement and its effects and influence on Van Sant, see this video essay on the Film & Media Studies' YouTubeTM channel: https://youtu.be/Z5B8_IDhJQo.) Produced and defended by Danny Boyle, Elephant's unspoken (again, mostly silent with dialogue barely heard in just one scene between four blokes kicking around the football toward the middle of the flick) subject is The Troubles in the UK. In what is either bravery or foolery (callers into the network after this movie aired were split), working class and Brit-born Clarke--by then a celebrated veteran of the medium of the British TV issues film--stripped the original screenplay of dialogue when making the film in order to focus on the act of gun murder as was then currently occurring. With one un-notable exception, each of the eighteen scenes of gun violence has the shooter followed into the setting where the homicide is to occur, shoot his victim, leave followed by the camera/audience, and then cut back to silent moments of each murdered man filling the frame with his recently un-lifed corpse. Elephant would be Clarke's penultimate work, with The Firm (no, not the adaption of the John Grisham novel that gave Holly Hunter the nom for Best Supporting Actress the same year she won Best Actress for The Piano as The Firm you're thinking of is by Sydney Pollack) also shot for British television and aired in 1989 as his final. Clarke would cross the pond to see if he could sell out in America (according to Ken) and die in 1990 at the age of 54. The film resoundingly fails the Bechdel test. Host Ryan calls Clarke a coward.
