I'm here to direct you to two articles elsewhere. This time of year my candle burns from both ends.
Over at Fandor, Nick Davis and I were invited to have a discussion about the Oscars so we did just that. It's nice to be invited to something publicly that you're always doing anyway privately. In The Big Picture on Best Picture we're talking about the "types" in Best Picture, box office results, how well we think they did at captureing the film year, and more. Hope you enjoy. Meanwhile, over at Tribeca Film, for my penultimate Oscar column, notes on Presenters, Parties and Predictions.
