Did Everything Everywhere Just Hit a Roadblock?

As the 95th annual Academy Awards draw ever closer, one win seems like it’s becoming a foregone conclusion: Everything Everywhere All at Once appears to have won the hearts of umpteen predictor ceremonies, making an eventual best-picture victory more and more likely. Or at least, that’s how it seemed until Sunday night’s BAFTAs, when All Quiet on the Western Front triumphed over the Daniels’ kaleidoscopic crowd-pleaser (which won only a single one of the prizes it had been nominated for). This matters for several reasons, as David Canfield explains: BAFTA membership, he writes, “overlaps somewhat with the Academy’s.” That body’s voting system is also similar to that of the Oscars, ”which is to say, a wide range of film professionals—actors, sound mixers, casting agents, writers—vote in all of the main categories after nominations were selected by craft-specific branches.” Could the BAFTAs foreshadow an upset brewing?
Elsewhere in HWD, the DGA Awards indicate Everything Everywhere is still very much a front-runner; Canfield looks back on the Oscar campaign that defined the 2000s; Alec Baldwin wins a significant legal victory; and The Last of Us may have axed one of its major players.
