Re: Oscar Trivia Quiz: Best Picture/Relatives Edition

I think this is a very exciting and tricky game, but I would like to make my little contribution to number 12, which is the only one- apart from De Havilland and Fontaine- I came up with the answer pretty easily. Correct me if I’m wrong, Mister Tee, but that surely must be Lee Grant and Dinah Manoff...

Queen Latifah and Julianne Moore back in 2002 qualified too.
This is not the topic nor the place to say it, but Uri, I miss your “Evaluating the nominees” a lot. Would you consider doing it again?

Regarding their screentime, this may be surprising, but I checked it on ScreenTimeCentral: Olivia Colman (The Lost Daughter) - 1:08:08 / 55.41% Kristen Stewart (Spencer) - 1:18:15 / 67.03% Nicole Kidman (Being the Ricardos) - 1:23:55 / 63.52% Jessica Chastain (The Eyes of Tammy Faye) - 1:36:42 / 76....

Re: Who Do You Want to See Host the 94th Oscars?

Among this group clearly Melissa McCarthy, but I chose someone else, that meaning I’d love to see Whoopi Goldberg again, but that’s probably not going to happen.
