The year 2020 was a very strange one ... for all of us.  The world for all intents and purposes, felt like it was put on pause. COVID-19 was really the only thing on our minds.  And because of it, even movie theatres and the film industry as a whole struggled.   Filmmakers began making films that were more personal, more meaningful, ones that represented how we felt as a society during these trying times.  Nomadland was one of those films that struck a chord with many, and definitely with the Academy.  A story of people, referred to as Nomads, trying to find themselves after suffering the post-2008 economic crisis.  The film is moving, provocative, and definitely visually stunning. However, in retrospect, deserving of the top award for 2020 at the Academy Awards.  If now, what was the best film of that year? Listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's take on 2020, and hear what film he would give the Rewatch Oscar of 2020 to.Download, listen, and share ALL Rewatching  Oscar episodes.SUBSCRIBE and FOLLOW Rewatching Oscar:Website: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comApple Podcasts/iTunesSpotifyGoogle PodcastsiHear RadioPodchaserPodcast AddictTuneInAlexaAmazon Overcasts Podcast Addict Player FMRSS Feed: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1815964.rssWebsite: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comSocial Media Links: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, InstagramShare your thoughts and suggestions with us through:Facebook Messanger or email us atjack@rewatchingoscar.comMusic by TurpacShow Producer: Jack FerdmanPodcast Logo Design: Jack FerdmanMovie (audio) trailer courtesy of MovieClips Classic TrailersMovie (audio) clips courtesy of YouTubeSupport us by downloading, sharing, and giving us a 5-star Rating.  It helps our podcast continue to reach many people and make it available to share more episodes with everyone.Tags: OscarsAcademy AwardsBest PicturewinnermoviesfilmreviewRewatching Oscarpodcast

The Coen Brothers are master of filmmaking. They can make a crime film funny but at the same time they don't hide the bleakness of what can happen when a insecure/beta car salesman purposely sets up to have his wife kidnapped for ransom. What can't go wrong, right? "Fargo" puts us in a cold world where not only is there crime but life also awaits. I love the cast of this film, they made the screenplay into their own. I love the fact that visuals in the film help push the story forward as well giving us moments of intesity. it's very hard to pull of when you have focus on crime solving and also comedy within the space. Life, as bleak as it can be, as crazy as you can get, you can get by with some laughter. It's important to laugh. It's also important to be true to yourself, try not to overdo things. As simple as this film is, the message is very powerful. It's bittersweet how it's pulled off especially in the third act of the film. The Coen Brothers love telling stories and somehow they were able to tell short stories that are able to add to an overall crime film. I want to add how visuals in this film give a good perspective of life because they didn't need to add landscape shots to describe locations but they did. It's needed for the viewer to see what world they're in. They know how to raid a hotel and show us a guilty, grown man cry as he's being arrested. As funny as that sounds, it's actually very disturbing.Four out of four tokes.

Somethings Gotta Give is a 2003 Romantic Comedy Drama, Produced and Directed by Nancy Meyers. Meyers has been responsible for The Parent Trap, The Holiday. It's Complicated, What Women Want, Father of the Bride, she is Romantic Comedy Royalty. Something's Gotta Give is the story of Harry Sanborn played by Jack Nicholson and Erica Barry played by Diane Keaton. When we meet Harry Sanborn he is actually dating Erica Barry's daughter Marin played by Amanda Peet. Amanda is 35 ish years younger than Harry. We learn very quickly, Harry is one of those perpetual bachelors who exclusively dates women much younger than him. When Marin and Harry go to her mother's beach house they run into Erica Barry along with Marin's sister Zoe played by Frances McDormand. Through this awkward meeting and a serious of unfortunate events for Harry it ends up that he must stay at that beach house with Erica until his health returns… much to both of their chagrins… but of course, love is likely to blossom in this very unlikely pairing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

[ For full episode catalogue please subscribe to our Patreon at Patreon.com/BestActress ] The year is 2021 and the nominees are: 1. Andra Day - The United States vs. Billie Holiday 2. Vanessa Kirby - Pieces of a Woman 3. Carey Mulligan - Promising Young Woman 4. Viola Davis - Ma Rainey's Black Bottom 5. Frances McDormand - Nomadland 
 - In 2021 Frances McDormand won her third Best Actress Oscar for Nomadland. McDormand currently has the second most Best Actress Oscars won to date with three (Katharine Hepburn has four). Nomadland stars McDormand as Fern, a woman who packs her van and sets off on the road exploring a life outside of conventional society as a modern-day nomad. Vanessa Kirby plays a woman who loses her child in a home birth. She has some amazing scenes with Ellen Burstyn (really thought she should have been nominated for Best Supporting Actress). Carey Mulligan received her second Best Actress nomination for Pieces of a Woman (first for An Education). Andra Day made her screen debut in The US vs. Billie Holiday delivering an exceptional performance with incredible vocals. She could have won this Oscar but the movie/script really fails her. Viola Davis stars as Ma Rainey, famous blues singer, in a very well acted but terribly boring film (sorry not sorry) Ma Rainey's Black Bottom. Join host Kyle Brownrigg with guest host Ted Morris as they discuss.

Las mujeres de una estricta comunidad menonita debaten qué hacer ante la revelación de los abusos cometidos por hombres de su congregación. El nuevo largometraje de la cineasta canadiense Sarah Polley se inspira en hechos reales ocurridos en 2010, y recogidos en la novela "Women Talking" de Miriam Toews. Nominada a dos premios Oscar, por mejor película y mejor guion adaptado, en su reparto destacan Rooney Mara, Claire Foy, Jessie Buckley y Frances McDormand. Ya disponible en salas de cine.

This week we drink whiskey and beer and keep it positive as we discuss Women Talking (2022), the Critic's Choice Award-winning film that helps ignite one hell of a conversation. Based on the 2018 novel by Miriam Toews, writer/director Sarah Polley guides an incredible ensemble cast to some incredible heights. The film takes place over the course of three days and two nights in an agrarian Mennonite society where every woman- and most girls- has experienced a sexual assault and a gaslighting about it (it was a ghost, it was the devil, you made it up... infuriating). The women meet in a barn to discuss their options. Produced by Frances McDormand and Brad Pitt, amongst others, the mostly-female cast is led by Rooney Mara, Claire Foy, Jessie Buckley, McDormand, Judith Ivey, Kate Hallett, Sheila McCarthy, August Winter, and Ben Wishaw.

In this episode, we discuss the streaming services that have conquered our world and corrupted our attention span. We also talk about Look At Me directed by Ken Kwek with an exceptional ensemble of actors (including Raphy's LaSalle buddies Yao and Shu Yi) and how Singapore bans this local film. But that's not all! Raphy also reveals his masterclass Frances McDormand theme, selecting three of his favorite McDormand films (Fargo, Almost Famous & Three Billboards Outside Missouri) ***JABRIEL ALSUHAIMI is a multi-disciplinary creative, working on a multitude of various projects in the audiovisual sphere.

Episode 39 finds your intrepid Team Vintage Sand doing a deep dive into the work of one of our most promising young filmmakers, 2020 Best Director Oscar-winner Chloe Zhao. Although she has only done four feature films to this point, she has already established a distinctive painterly and brilliant visual style, and, as no less an authority than Frances McDormand put it, has shown herself able to successfully walk the line between sentiment and sentimentality. We take an auteurist approach to Zhao's work by dividing her young career into two distinct parts. She began with two very low-budget films, Songs My Brother Taught Me and The Rider, using non-actors essentially playing themselves. Notably, both were set in the unique and wonderful landscape of the Pine Ridge Reservation in the Black Hills of South Dakota, a location that is becoming to Zhao what Monument Valley was to John Ford. Her Oscar winner, Nomadland, was a transitional work, featuring old pros McDormand and David Strathairn mixed in with non-actors. This unexpected success then led to her chance to be part of the MCU with Eternals, a huge-budget film that many connoisseurs of the genre consider to be the worst of the Marvel films. So our fundamental question is simple: how do the visual and thematic elements that made her first two films so uniquely personal and intimate carry over into the second pair of films, done on a much different scale? As frequently happens, there is some dissent within Team Vintage Sand. Michael, and to a lesser extent John argue, as do many, that Zhao's films suffer from her insistence on non-actors, and that Songs and The Rider would have been better had Zhao populated her film with professional actors. I'm not bothered as much by it, but I see where they're coming from, especially since they are both trained actors. That being said, there is no doubt that Zhao has a phenomenal eye and that she is an artist to be closely watched; for us, she is one of the few young directors who has earned a lifetime ticket, which simply means that if she's directing a film, we'll be there opening weekend. So sit back, enjoy, and we'll see you all down the road.

Chloé Zhao's career has rocketed in recent years with the success of "Nomadland," as she's become only the second woman to win an Oscar for Best Picture and Best Director, and the first woman of color to do so. Fresh off the blockbuster Marvel Cinematic Universe's "Eternals" she joins the podcast to talk about the role of her adopted hometown in shaping her success, as well as a few teasers about her coming projects. We learn that Frances McDormand lived in "Vanguard," the famous white van in the film, in Zhao's Ojai driveway, and was costumed by Ojai thrift stores. It helped her transform into the character of Fern, the widowed woman who lives on the periphery of the American Dream in the aftermath of the Great Recession, traveling from one low-wage job to another. It earned McDormand her third Oscar. Zhao grew up in China as a devotee of manga - the action-oriented graphic novels - that prepared her for the MCU role, but it was her love of western landscapes, so vividly on display in her first three films, "Songs from my Brother," "The Rider" and "Nomadland," that has characterized her work. We talk about coming projects, her artistic process and influences, and how she moved to Ojai just days before the Thomas Fire devastated the town. In fact, it was Ojai's resilience and strength in aftermath that confirmed for her choice to move here. Our wide-ranging talk included Bass Reeves, Dracula and Mongolia. We did not talk about Lincoln logs, Ukrainian air defense systems or taimen fishing.

Welcome to this rambling hot take on why Carey Mulligan should've won the Best Actress Oscar over Frances McDormand.

The lads hit the road to explore the very human journeys of Fern (McDormand). Swanky and the other Nomads who roam the USA in the wake of the 2008 crash. A delightfully meditative and poetic film anchored by a beautifully human performance by McDormand and a cast of colourful characters bringing their own stories to life on the big screen.

Estrellas del séptimo arte, periodistas y curiosos volvieron a llenar las calles de esta ciudad a orillas del Mediterráneo, en el marco del Festival de cine de Cannes. Una edición internacional y diversa, tras un año de silencio por causa de covid. El irreverente Spike Lee preside el jurado y acapara con su mirada el afiche de esta edición. Cannes vuelve a brillar a través de su prestigioso Festival Internacional de cine. Un certamen que reanuda con el cine de autor, luego de un año de silencio por causa de covid. El 2021, las medidas sanitarias son extremas pero imprescindibles en este evento multitudinario que reúne a la crema del séptimo arte mundial y a más de 5.000 periodistas del mundo entero, en este pequeño y soleado balneario de la Costa Azul francesa. Cada noche promete un desfile de estrellas por la alfombra roja del Palacio de los Festivales. El certamen cinematográfico congrega este año a 24 aspirantes a la Palma de Oro. Y de este selecto grupo algunas cintas han creado gran expectativa. Francia presenta el número más elevado de películas en liza por la Palma de Oro, siete largometrajes en total. En el ramillete francés, además de “Annette”, están Bruno Dumont (“France”), el prolífico François Ozon (“Tout s'est bien passé”) o el ganador de la Palma de Oro en 2015, Jacques Audiard (“Les Olympiades”). Dos directoras francesas probarán suerte, Catherine Corsini con “La fractura” y Julia Ducournau, quien promete crear una onda de choque en la Croisette con thriller ultraviolento, “Titane”.   Sin duda el elenco más glamuroso sobre la alfombra roja de Cannes es el de ”The French Dispatch”, la fantasía francesa del muy respetado Wes Anderson, que cuenta una lluvia de estrellas de Hollywood y del viejo continente, desde Bill Murray hasta Francés McDormand, pasando por Timothée Chalamet, Saoirse Ronan o Benicio del Toro.   El italiano Nanni Moretti también está en liza con “Tre pianni” al igual que Sean Penn quien presenta “Flag Day”. Una  de las películas aspirantes a la Palma fue filmada en Colombia, “Memoria”, de Apitchapong Weerasethakul, quien salto a la fama precisamente en Cannes en 2010, cuando se llevó la Palma por "El tío Boonmee que recuerda sus vidas pasadas". El tailandés podría alzar una segunda estatuilla con “Memoria” un drama protagonizado por la camaleónica Tilda Swinton.   No podía faltar una pizca de escándalo y ese podría ser el rol de “Benedetta”, drama erótico del siempre provocador Paul Verhoeven, sobre la pasión de una monja por otra mujer en el siglo XVII.   Spike Lee, el irreverente presidente del jurado Shelton Jackson Lee, mejor conocido como Spike Lee es a sus 62 años uno de los directores más sagaces de Hollywood. Director comprometido con una causa política en especial, la defensa de la comunidad negra en Estados Unidos. Desde hace tres décadas, sus películas denuncian temas de una triste actualidad: el racismo o la violencia y discriminación contra los afroamericanos, aunque siempre con una buena dosis de sarcasmo y humor. Ingredientes que le han permitido pisar la alfombra roja de Cannes en incontables ocasiones. Este año lo hará como presidente del jurado. Un reconocimiento aplazado por la crisis sanitaria el año pasado, y que el cineasta aceptó agradecido. Lee es la primera figura de color en presidir el jurado en un gran festival internacional de cine. Cannes le ha dado este reconocimiento no solo por ser una de los directores más agudos de Hollywood; también ha tenido una larga relación con Cannes, desde “She's gotta have it” (1986). Vuelven las secciones paralelas Cada año el Festival de Cannes se acompaña de dos secciones paralelas, la Semana de la crítica, y la Quincena de la Realizadores. Esta última busca revelar nuevas formas de hacer cine y esta dirijida por e italiano Paolo Moretti, quien converso con nosotros. Este ano la Quincena selecciono en su categoría de largometrajes a tres cintas latinoamericanas de Uruguay, Costa Rica y Brasil.

FRANCE 24's film critic Lisa Nesselson shares her thoughts on "Nomadland" and why it wouldn't have been one of her top choices for the Academy Awards. Frances McDormand plays the lead role in Chloé Zhao's feature film. It won the Best Picture, Best Director and Best Female Lead gongs at the 2021 Oscars. McDormand portrays a widow who leaves a now-desolate former company town in Nevada and takes up life as a modern-day nomad.

Nomadland. Il rifiuto di radicarsi. Minari. Il sogno americano. Disney plus e Sky/Now tv presentano i due film, premi Oscar 2021, sulla tenacia e sul sogno vigile dell'abbandono.

Director Chloé Zhao became the first woman of color to win Best Director at the Academy Awards this year with her 2020 film starring Frances McDormand. Based on Jessica Bruder’s non-fiction book exploring the lives of van-dwelling transient Americans in the wake of the Great Recession, the film features many of the real-life people from the book playing fictionalized versions of themselves. The film took home the Best Picture statue as well as earning McDormand her third Oscar for Best Actress. Now we’re hitting the road to live the van life with Nomadland!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com   You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Chloe Zhao made history at the 93rd Academy Awards, becoming the first woman of color to win best director and just the second woman to win the award. At the in-person event in Los Angeles' Union Station on April 25, Zhao won the directing Oscar for Nomadland, joining Kathryn Bigelow, who won in 2009 for The Hurt Locker. “I'm extremely lucky to be able to do what I love for a living,” she said backstage. “This win means more people get to live their dreams. I'm extremely grateful.” This was the only year in the awards' 93-year history with two female nominees: Zhao and Promising Young Woman director Emerald Fennell. Zhao's film, starring Frances McDormand, tells the story of a woman in her 60s and other transient workers in the American West. The film won best picture and McDormand took home the award for best actress. Wearing braids and sporting white tennis shoes, Zhao thanked her entire cast and crew. She also paid homage to those who inspired her to “keep going.” “This is for anyone who has the faith and the courage to hold onto the goodness in themselves and hold onto the goodness in each other, no matter how difficult it is to do that,” she said during her acceptance speech. “This is for you. You inspire me to keep going.” (AP) This article was provided by The Japan Times Alpha.

Nomadland is a 2020 American drama film based on the 2017 non-fiction book Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century by Jessica Bruder. The film is written, edited, produced, and directed by Chloé Zhao, awarded the Oscar for best director in 2021, and stars Frances McDormand (who is also a producer on the film) as a vandwelling working nomad who leaves her hometown after her husband dies and the sole industry closes down, to be "houseless" and travel around the United States. David Strathairn also stars in a supporting role. A number of real-life nomads appear as fictionalized versions of themselves, including Linda May, Swankie, and Bob Wells. Nomadland premiered on September 11, 2020, at the Venice Film Festival, where it won the Golden Lion. It also won the People's Choice Award at the Toronto International Film Festival. It had a one-week streaming limited release on December 4, 2020, and was distributed by Searchlight Pictures in selected IMAX theaters in the United States on January 29, 2021, and simultaneously in theaters, and streaming digitally on Hulu, on February 19, 2021. The film was praised for its direction, screenplay, editing, cinematography, and performances, especially of McDormand. It was the third-highest rated film of 2020 on Metacritic, which found it to be the most frequently ranked by critics and publications as one of the best films of the year. At the 93rd Academy Awards, it won Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actress for McDormand, from a total of six nominations; Zhao became the first woman of color to win Best Director, while McDormand became the first person to win Academy Awards as both producer and performer for the same film. It also won Best Motion Picture – Drama and Best Director at the 78th Golden Globe Awards, four awards including Best Film at the 74th British Academy Film Awards, and four awards including Best Film at the 36th Independent Spirit Awards. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/popcorn-junkies/message

Winning a best Actress in a leading role for her part in our movie this week, Frances McDormand, turns out a rousing portrayal of a woman choosing a nomadic lifestyle in favour of setting down roots in a real estate community. Though nomadic lifestyles have become more possible than not in today's Covid-19 world, McDormand's stunning performance is her third Oscar in her career, just one short of the record held by Katharine Hepburn, while award winning, and the director, Chloé Chou, not only won accolades in China, she picked up an Oscar for this movie as well. Given that Nomadland won so many Oscars, Claudia and Victor decide to put the Oscar winning movie through its paces to see if the movie deserved a best movie, Oscar. Remember, tune in every Friday to hear whether Claudia and Victor think you should plunk down money on a particular movie or not.

Recorded before the Academy Awards ceremony this year, this week we're celebrating Best Picture winner, "Nomadland."  Out on Blu-ray this week, the film both celebrates a lifestyle and condemns the institutions that force it upon some.  It has to make you wonder -- why do we allow so few to keep so much for themselves and keep so many so close to the poverty line?

By Frances McDormand La clip è tratta dalla serata di premiazione degli Oscar 2021 e i diritti sono riservati all'Academy of Motion Picture

E' stata una serata con poche sorprese questa 93esima edizione degli Oscar. A trionfare è stato “Normadland” con tre statuette: miglior film, quella come migliore attrice protagonista che va alla bravissima a Frances McDormand, e  miglior regia a Chloé Zhao prima asiatica nella storia degli Academy Awards ad essere premiata e seconda donna in assoluto.

Der dreifach oscarprämierte Film von Chloé Zhao ist der Film zur richtigen Zeit. Einer der Resilienz entwickelt - und einer, der zurecht gegen Netflixs “Mank” gewonnen hat. Zum 93. Mal sind die bedeutendsten Filmpreise der Welt verliehen worden. Drei der vier Haupt-Oscars gingen an das Roadmovie "Nomadland" der aus China stammenden Filmemacherin Chloé Zhao. Einer davon an ihre Hauptdarstellerin Frances McDormand. Und die sich wünscht sich statt einer Dankesrede, dass man sich den Film auf der größten Leinwand anschauen sollte, die man finden kann. Die Preise seien absolut gerechtfertigt, sagt die SZ-Filmkritikerin Susan Vahabzadeh. “Nomandland” sei “ein Glücksfall von einem Film.” Er zeige großartige Bilder und entwickle eine unglaubliche Resilienz. Zudem sei die gesamte Verleihung viel diverser, als die beiden Oscars für McDormand und Anthony Hopkins vermuten lassen würden. Auch “Mank” von David Fincher sei ein “wahnsinnig schöner Film”, sagt Vahabzadeh. Aber im Vergleich wirke er trotz seiner Perfektion “unemotional und erstarrt”.

Joel and Ethan Coen may have won big at Cannes with "Barton Fink," but it wasn't until 1996's "Fargo" was nominated for 7 Oscars including Best Picture, and won Best Actress (Frances McDormand) and Best Original Screenplay for the Coens that Hollywood really started believing that these guys could deliver the goods. (They did fail miserably in Hollywood with their previous effort, "The Hudsucker Proxy," after all.) Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our Drama by the Brothers Coen series with our discussion on this homespun tale of murder, "Fargo." We talk about the nature of the setting — North Dakota and Minnesota — and what that brings to the film. We chat about the brilliant talent — from William H. Macy to McDormand to Steve Buscemi to Peter Stormare to Harve Presnell — and what each of them brings to the table. We discuss the nature of protagonist vs. antagonist in a film structured like this and what reversals do to the storytelling process. We delve into the beautiful cinematography of Roger Deakins and explore what he was doing with the camera in this film. And we go back and forth on the Mike Yanagita character as far as what it means in the context of this film. We love this film and talk at length about it. Tune in!
