The Awards-Season Picture Comes Into Focus
|
Directors, producers, actors, costume designers, cinematographers—so many guilds of Hollywood professionals have announced their awards nominations this week, offering a much clearer picture of the films that really have captured the industry’s attention this year. Unsurprisingly, some well-established awards-season favorites have continued racking up nominations, and Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Banshees of Inisherin, and The Fabelmans remain as strong contenders as they were when the week began, if not stronger.
But there are surprises all over the awards landscape too, from the unusual snubs at the SAG Award nominations—where’d you go, Michelle Williams?—to the Directors Guild’s inclusion of Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski. With Oscar nomination voting beginning today, this is exactly the time when you want the entire town talking about your movie. Based on the wide spread of nominations this week, almost everyone has gotten what they want.

On this week’s Little Gold Men podcast, David Canfield, Rebecca Ford, Richard Lawson, and Katey Rich read the tea leaves of the SAG nominations and also dig into the highs and lows of the Golden Globe Awards, which David attended in person on Tuesday night. Despite several years of controversy and upheaval within the organization that hosts the awards, the Globes were a surprisingly successful and even joyful evening, as Richard wrote in his review. The question remains, as ever, how much impact the Globes actually have on Oscar nominations. But with standout speeches from Angela Bassett, Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, and others, the Globes certainly shone a light on the season’s contenders at precisely the right moment
