On this second episode of The Oscars series for The Outlaw Nation, host and Tomatometer critic John Rocha welcomes his CineFiles cohost and director Steve Morris to revisit Kenneth Branagh's BELFAST and discuss its Oscars chances. John and Steve discuss what they loved about the film including the performances, direction, score, sound design, soundtrack, and cinematography. The film chronicles the life of a working-class Ulster Protestant family from the perspective of their nine-year-old son Buddy during The Troubles in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Buddy's father Pa works overseas in England, while the family—Ma, elder brother Will, and paternal grandparents Granny and Pop—live in Belfast. It stars Caitríona Balfe, Judi Dench, Jamie Dornan, Ciarán Hinds, Colin Morgan, Josie Walker and Jude Hill. #Belfast #KennethBranagh #Oscars Follow The Outlaw John Rocha: https://twitter.com/TheRochaSays Follow Steve Morris: https://twitter.com/srmorris --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/the-outlaw-nation-network/support
This week we're going on a whirlwind tour of the movies with BAFTA committee member Anna Higgs. She tells us about the BAFTA winning movies, starting with Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Kenneth Branagh's Belfast and moving on to Jeymes Samuel's contemporary Western The Harder they Fall. We discuss some of the winning actors from Will Smith for King Richard, the film about the father of Venus and Serena Williams, Joanna Scanlon for Ali Khan's After Love and Tony Kotsur, the first deaf male actor to win, for Coda (which means Child of Deaf Adult). We also chat about the inspiring acceptance speech given by Lashana Lynch, for her Rising Star award voted for by the audience, who shot to fame for her role as the next 007 in No Time to Die. We're airing just before the Oscars so Anna gives us her rundown and predictions on these too – why Andrew Garfield in Lin-Manuel Miranda's Tick Tick… BOOM! and Olive Coleman in The Lost Daughter are in the running for an Oscar but weren't nominated for a BAFTA. We also discuss the smaller films making big waves like animated Danish film Flee and one of Anna's favourites, Ali & Ava. Listen in, and then head straight out to the cinema or get streaming – we give you enough good movie tips to keep you busy for weeks.

After working for years on stage, film, and television, as one of the great character actors, Ciarán Hinds finally received long-overdue recognition from a major awards body for his performance in Kenneth Branagh's "Belfast" with an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor. Ciarán plays a version of the director's grandfather growing up in 1969 Ireland and brings a level of wit, warmth, and humanity to the role in ways that have strongly resonated with audiences. He was kind enough to take some time to talk with me about receiving the news of his Oscar nomination, working with Judi Dench for the first time, what Branagh's film means to him, and more.

Though it's set over 50 years in the past, there's something eerily current about Kenneth Branagh's Belfast. Exploring the suffering of division and violence through the eyes of a child, Belfast remains absolutely an echo of Ireland in the past yet somehow also manages to feel like it could represent the pain of our present culture. This week, Robert Bellissimo (Robert Bellissimo At The Movies) and Deb Whalen (@WonderWhalen) stop by to discuss Belfast's cry for peace and the power of perspective.
As the Oscar ceremony creeps closer Kenneth Branagh's BELFAST is thought to be a lock for a couple of nominations. Alan & Chris share their thoughts on the semi-biographical feature set in Ireland followed up by a review of SWAN SONG starring Mahershala Ali in his first major performance in a lead role. Afterward, each host shares a tidbit of silver screen news before closing out the episode with a movie recommendation.Recommendations from Alan and Chris in this episode: "Corpus Christi", "No Time To Die"Footcandle Film SocietySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
SHAUN RESURFACES!! After a fan backlash, Shaun shows up again to grace the podcast with his presence. We collectively see ONE film a the Cinema in Kenneth Branagh's BELFAST, and Tosin muses on what this means for films aimed at more mature audiences (i.e. The Gray Pound/Silver dollar effect) At home, Shaun gives the lowdown on Season 1 of The Deuce, Sharon catches Mexican Zombies (or are they soldiers?) in Soldados O Zombies, and with We Don't talk about Bruno Lighting up the Charts, Tosin gives a belated review of Encanto and does some Disney ranting. Is Netflix killing cinemas? Each week we weigh up what we've seen in cinemas with what we've watched online at home and figure out which provided the best time. At least, we did before COVID jumped in and declared Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney + and friends the winner.

How do you imprint a memory onto celluloid? Kenneth Branagh attempts to answer that question with his latest film, Belfast, based on his own memories of growing up as a young boy during the Troubles in 1960s Northern Ireland. Kevin is joined once again by Chris Williams of We're Watching Here to examine whether Branagh succeeds. Together they discuss the performances from heavyweights like Judy Dench and Ciaran Hinds, the black-and-white cinematography, and the religious undercurrents of the film's conflict.

| Analysis | We cut into “Disney + Day,” and take a quick bite on Disney's ‘Jungle Cruise.' Then give a taste of Taylor Swift before we sink into the main course of Kenneth Branagh's ‘Belfast!' I was hungry when I wrote this.
