Fun fact, actress Clara Bow (Wings) was discovered by Dorothy Arzner, one of the first female directors and also a lesbian. She and Clara were really close but it's unknown whether or not they were in a relationship. However, Arzner did invent the boom mic to help Clara be more comfortable while filming so that's pretty neat.

You can see that in every decade, there are genres and types of movies that are favored at the Oscars. Like war movies in the 1940s and 1980s, musicals in the 1960s, teary relationship dramas in the 1980s.... There are genres though that rarely get nominated, like comedies, action or horror, even thrillers. Mostly it's historical or psychological dramas.

Horror is one of the most consistently successful genres and yet it gets no respect. When Exorcist was nominated, William Friedkin insisted that the nomination proved it wasn't a horror movie because horror movies don't win awards. No other genre has to insist upon itself as 'elevated' in order to be taken seriously. No one describes Rocky as an 'elevated' sports movie or Titanic as an 'elevated' romance.

Horror is like fantasy and sci-fi: when it's got the kind of message that Hollywood normally loves to give awards to, it's usually presented too abstractly or metaphorically for most Academy voters to pick up on.

I have watched both and I prefer Bong Joon-ho's social class thriller more than the anime one with a teenager and his talking alien parasyte that inhabits his right hand.

I've never made a video before, but this is making me want to learn how to do it so I can talk about every single Best Documentary winner.

For the 2010 films (as in the 2011 Oscars, god I find that confusing), it wasn’t just The King’s Speech winning that bothered me (it’s a pretty decent film, but most of the other films were much better), but it also won Best Director. There was nothing noteworthy about the directing in that film, and this was a year where excellent directors David Fincher (who is personally my favorite director), Christopher Nolan (who didn’t even get nominated, WTF), the Coen Brothers and Darren Aronofsky all had films in the Best Picture nominations. What the actual hell?

I actually think Tom Hooper has a deceptively interesting personal style as a filmmaker. He frequently frames closeups in uncommon, idiosyncratic ways, he gets pretty dynamic use out of wide-angle lenses. _Personally_ I feel he doesn't always get the recognition he deserves as a visual stylist. That said, *I agree* Hooper is basically in possession of a Best Director Oscar that probably should have gone to Fincher or Aronofsky. Hooper's _interesting_ and capable of telling visual stories in unique ways, but he's not the cinema artist they are. And both "The Social Network" and "Black Swan", I feel, are superior films.

"What the actual hell?" The answer is simple---if Oscar voters generally believe that such-and-such movie is the Best Picture of the year, they will also give Best Director award to the person who made it. If you look at the instances where there is a split between Best Picture and Best Director, most of the times the director of the film that wins Best Picture was not nominated for Best Director.

Fun fact, that "Mutiny on the Bounty" movie was based on a real life situation. If you go to Pitcairn Island today, you will be able to say "hi!" too all the descendants of Mr. Christian and Co. Also, Captain Bligh set a record for himself and the small amount of men in the rowboat for distance and survival which has not been beaten even now. Also, for my money, the obscure, black and white, made for TV "Hamlet" with Richard Burton is hands down the best version. You can see why people respected him so much as an actor.

Cazale had a truly great run for an actor who was in so few movies. It no doubt helped that the early 70s was a freewheeling time in filmmaking, with a lot of great directors liberated by loosened censorship restrictions and the studios feeling they'd lost track of what would be reliably profitable so anything goes. Very talented man, lost way too young to cancer.
