Hollywood loves movies about themselves, or do they...?
(p.s. sorry for the choppy audio at times, I guess Ed Wood snuck into this episode in more ways than one.)

Should Sally Hawkins have received her first Oscar nomination for Mike Leigh's 2008 dramedy? And could she have bested Kate Winslet to the top prize?

If the Academy awarded Oscars for titles alone, Sex, Lies and Videotape would take the cake. And if the Best Actress category respected indies, so would the perennially underrated Andie MacDowell. Also, stay tuned for the Pfeiffer v. Tandy discourse.

If the Academy was ever a stickler for quantity over quality, 1963 would be their poster child.
The wonderful Fritz joins for this discussion that covers Martin Ritt's cynical anti-hero western Hud (5:12). We also chat about the category's mammoth-sized films, America America (23:40), Cleopatra (42:50) and How the West Was Won (1:06:40), with the short and sweet Lilies of the Field (1:16:43) a nice break. Then, it's time for Best Picture victor Tom Jones (1:25:26). Listen to that segment for a perspective you don't often hear...

A David Lynch discussion always warrants starting at the end and working forward. Take a drive with us down Mulholland Drive… Spoilers incoming! Watch out for the roadblocks aka the 2001 Best Picture nominees.

Never a better day to chat Fassbinder. Schygulla missed out on the Oscar for the likes of Field, Fonda, Clayburgh, Mason and Midler. Should she have been nominated alongside that group?

The L.A. Times called Blue Velvet's director nomination the "only spice on an expected Oscar bill." Now imagine what it could have done in Best Picture. A quintet thankfully saved by the likes of Hannah and Her Sisters and A Room with a View.

2003 works better as a trio. On this week's episode, Valentina @VStarcovich and I chat about the Miramax powerhouse that missed Best Picture (for fair reason), Anthony Minghella's Cold Mountain. Then it's on to our clean sweeper, Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (26:50). And it's only right to save the best for last, the desert of this line-up, Sofia Coppola's beautiful Lost in Translation (36:33), a discussion that might lead you to just another rewatch.

Writer for thefilmexperience.net and his own site icecream4freaks.com Ben Miller joins this fortnight for a wealthy and exciting chat on 1977 film. First, it's time to discuss our unexpected outlier from Best Picture and Ben's personal favourite of that year, Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1:39). We also made room for the Academy's mix of sci-fi, romcoms and melodramas, starting at the Best Picture winner Annie Hall (24:53) and making our way through The Goodbye Girl (32:10), Julia (43:30), Star Wars (55:31), and The Turning Point (1:03:01). Then, it's time to revise Oscar history.... (1:15:20).

Sophia, from the Oscar Wild podcast was gracious enough to join me for a fantastically fun and fascinating conversation on all things Daniel Day-Lewis including his 1988 epic, The Unbearable Lightness of Being (06:24). Spoilers: he's doing an accent. Don't pass up the trivia either to hear how this super-fan scored (25:50). We also couldn't pass up the chance to discuss the lukewarm Best Picture selection of the same year which all things considering made for great discussion... The Accidental Tourist (34:50) Dangerous Liaisons (50:25) Mississippi Burning (1:00:24) Rain Man (1:06:44) Working Girl (1:14:58)

This is the most a guest and myself have discussed a single year so far. They Shoot Horses is one of the better feel-bad movies of the 1960s. Sam & I absolutely love this film, even if it scarred me back in the day. Stick around to the end for some musings on Best Actress too!

The Talented Mr. Ripley might just count 1999 as period cinema. A year that isn't necessarily reflected well by its Best Picture choices. What did Eoin and I think of this luscious summer adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's boundless novel, and Anthony Minghella's big Oscar follow-up that wasn't?

How we'd adore the Academy if they'd settled for a running surrealistic joke as a Best Picture nominee. We talk Buñuel, (one of) the strongest ensembles, and Whit Stillman's Metropolitan, plus the evergreen crop of 1972 Best Picture.

In our second instalment of "countries who often submit the wrong film for Oscar consideration" Valentina and I tackled Céline Sciamma's sublime Portrait of a Lady on Fire. En plus, we made plenty of time to discuss the shortcomings of France's submission process, the international feature nominees of 2019 (g'day Parasite), what an eventual showdown between Parasite and Portrait would have looked like, and a lengthy, healthy discussion on our favourite international feature prize winners. This movie-length episode was such a blast. Enjoy!

I'm always looking out for the day that I turn into an Almodóvar stan, and though today was not that day, I still learned a fair deal about Valentina's love for the Spanish auteur (and High Heels). On this week's episode I was joined by @VStarcovich to break down the heated and contentious Talk to Her, an Oscar favourite in original screenplay that was snubbed by Spain's committee. An all too familiar experience for Almodóvar. We also made room to chat about who the next Almodóvar leading woman could be, and Parallel Mothers, with a Rossy de Palma name drop as good as her cameo in the latter.

It was such a joy to chat with Oscar YouTuber and pollster @FritzandOscars for this Nicole Kidman and 1995 Best Actress themed discussion. Kidman's omission ranks high, perhaps next to JLo in Hustlers, for most famous acting snubs, so it was a given that I'd get on board sooner or later. Together we fawned over Kidman's turn while slightly shrugged at To Die For's oddity. After answering some great questions about the race, Kidman and Meg Ryan, we moved onto bulky chatter over the fantastic '95 nominees. I'll always campaign that as one of the strongest years.

If only Eoin Daly and I loved 2015's Oscar season as much as we adore Todd Haynes’ sublime Carol. An Oscar favourite *outside* the all-important Best Picture and Best Director ballots, we’re both in the agreement that Carol would have shaken up the race. Listen to find out how we revised 2015’s Best Picture lineup and modified the six categories that Carol was nominated, and unjustly lost in. Also listen for notes on category fraud, the Academy’s longevity, and of course, all things Carol, a favourite film that we are both endlessly passionate about.
