I once again saw all of them and have some ideas on which title(s) should take home Oscar gold.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s just get to it, shall we? The nominees, in the order in which I saw them, are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">JOKER<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the big deal?<\/strong> This haunting tale of Arthur Fleck\u2019s downward spiral into madness is highlighted by that captivating performance from Joaquin Phoenix. Director Todd Phillips\u2019 masterful camerawork helps define this character\u2019s mindset, and the artistic look of \u201c<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Joker (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zAGVQLHvwOY\" target=\"_blank\">Joker<\/a>\u201d breaths life into his desolation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will it win?<\/strong> No. Superhero \u2013 and supervillain \u2013 movies have only recently gained recognition as <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.granitecitynow.com\/?p=252\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"legitimate contenders (opens in a new tab)\">legitimate contenders<\/a>. But at this point AMPAS would sooner shit a solid gold statuette than award Best Picture to a \u201ccomic book movie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FORD V FERRARI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the big deal?<\/strong> American automotive designer Carroll Shelby (Matt Damon) and British race car driver Ken Miles (Christian Bale, SNUB) work to build a machine for the Ford Motor Co. that\u2019s capable of taking on Ferrari in the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance event. &#8220;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Ford v Ferrari (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=I3h9Z89U9ZA\" target=\"_blank\">Ford v Ferrari<\/a>&#8221; goes beyond the sport to explore the relationships of its characters and the science behind the designs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will it win?<\/strong> Probably not. But Bale should have been recognized for his endearing, playful, and entertaining performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ONCE UPON A TIME\u2026 IN HOLLYWOOD<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the big deal? <\/strong>A 1950s TV Western star (Leonardo DiCaprio, up for Best Actor) and his stunt double (Supporting Actor nominee Brad Pitt) struggle to find big screen success in the late-1960s Hollywood. This fable sprinkles touches of Tinseltown lore among its otherwise outrageous, amusing, and moderately violent narrative. But this is quintessential Quentin, so what do you expect?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will it win?<\/strong> Maybe. Hollywood LOVES movies about itself, so the title alone gives \u201c<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Once Upon a Time\u2026 (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ELeMaP8EPAA\" target=\"_blank\">Once Upon a Time\u2026<\/a>\u201d a leg up. Pitt is fantastic and almost surely will take home the Supporting Actor award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1917<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the big deal?<\/strong> Director Sam Mendes tells this stunning and engaging story the only way that makes sense \u2013 as one continuous take. Breathtaking and brilliant and told essentially in real time, this one-shot wonder literally follows two young British soldiers on a dangerous mission to deliver a message to the front lines during World War I. And, oh by the way, <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.granitecitynow.com\/?p=451\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"it\u2019s fucking amazing (opens in a new tab)\">it\u2019s fucking amazing<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will it win?<\/strong> Yes. If you\u2019ve seen the film, you know it, too. I don\u2019t need to explain anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MARRIAGE STORY<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the big deal?<\/strong> This intuitive, honest, and uncomfortable examination of a crumbling marriage will hit you in the feels. Can we just for a second pause and reflect on that visceral shouting match that takes place in Charlie\u2019s living room? My god! Scarlett Johansson, who finally seems comfortable onscreen, and Adam Driver more than deserve their acting nominations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will it win?<\/strong> While \u201c<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Marriage Story (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BHi-a1n8t7M\" target=\"_blank\">Marriage Story<\/a>\u201d has a strong emotional resonance, I don\u2019t think that\u2019s enough to secure this year\u2019s title. I would, though, love to see Driver steal that Best Actor win from Phoenix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">JOJO RABBIT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the big deal?<\/strong> Absurd humor and whimsical visuals balance weighty issues in this <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"World War II tale (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tL4McUzXfFI\" target=\"_blank\">World War II tale<\/a> that\u2019s saturated with subtle and obvious satire. Jojo (Roman Griffin Davis, who is outstanding and should have been nominated for Best Actor; I don\u2019t care if he\u2019s only 12) discovers a young Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) hiding in his home, causing Jojo to evaluate his loyalty to Hitler\u2019s army. Take notice of the astute correlation between the film\u2019s cheeky vibe and Jojo\u2019s journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will it win?<\/strong> Doubtful. But this is my second favorite film of the nine, so if a dark horse hopeful exists\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">THE IRISHMAN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the big deal?<\/strong> (Another) Martin Scorsese mobster flick, starring Robert DeNiro, Joe Pesci, and Al Pacino. I know. Oh, and it\u2019s five days long. I\u2019m exaggerating, but barely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will it win?<\/strong> You know, I kind of hope not. I thought \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RS3aHkkfuEI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"The Irishman (opens in a new tab)\">The Irishman<\/a>\u201d was fine, but I wasn\u2019t blown away (heh). I feel like this nomination stems mainly from the marquee names pinned to the film\u2019s credits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">LITTLE WOMEN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the big deal?<\/strong> Written and thoughtfully directed by Greta Gerwig (SNUB), <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"this stunning adaptation (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=AST2-4db4ic\" target=\"_blank\">this stunning adaptation<\/a> of Louisa May Alcott\u2019s novel chronicles the lives of four sisters, each very different and uniquely determined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will it win?<\/strong> I don\u2019t think so, but wouldn\u2019t that be a satisfying \u201cup your ass\u201d for Gerwig? And how about the inspired and powerful performances from Saoirse Ronan and Florence Pugh? Ronan could give Ren\u00e9e Zellweger a run for her Best Actress money. Fingers crossed! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PARASITE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the big deal?<\/strong> What a bizarre mix of genres. Bong Joon Ho intentionally and sensibly intertwines these classifications, and the result is altogether fascinating. I dare you to look away. Filled with layers of symbolism, this flick will occupy your mind long after the credits roll (read this again). Yeah, we\u2019re talking next-level symbolism here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will it win?<\/strong> It might, but I think this could be the \u201cRoma\u201d saga revisited. \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5xH0HfJHsaY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Parasite (opens in a new tab)\">Parasite<\/a>\u201d is also nominated for International Feature Film and most likely will take home that prize, leaving the night\u2019s overall Best Picture title up for grabs \u2013 and awarded to \u201c1917.\u201d Wink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And there you have it. But let us not forget: The Academy doesn\u2019t care what I think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch the 92nd Academy Awards on February 9 to see if your top picks take home a top prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>You have just enjoyed the insights of Movie Addict Mel, a cinema dork and conversational writer.
