Unofficial Academy Awards Discussion Board

Evan Peters is a Ryan Murphy regular. He's been in nearly every season of American Horror Story. He shifts between good and bad there. I had a look at imdb and didn't notice American Horror Story listed in his credits. When looking again I see it now towards the top (hate the way imdb does that). I...

I Am Woman , seems to be rather bland. Mediocre TV movie is an apt description. Its cinema release was scrapped in Australia and it went straight to streaming and it is just as well because it is more suited to that format. I cannot begin to imagine what it would have been like to see it on the big...

I thought I would start compiling my personal list of best of 2020 which I usually start in June. Despite very slim pickings I could actually come up with nominations that I am happy with in the top six categories. Filled picture/director/actor/supporting actor & actress.

Cinema as we have known it is on life support with the prognosis very poor. COVID is going away anytime soon but that in itself is a whole other story. By the way soon is likely to be quite a number of years..... Yesterday I got a text to advise me that the latest edition of Sight & Sound had co...
