For this final podcast of the 83rd Oscar season, we've misplaced Katey. Oops? Where she go? But Nick, Joe and myself (Nathaniel) are back to close out the season.
We had fun chiming in weekly and after a break will be back with Off-Season cinematic musings. While we normally have quite a laugh during these, and there's a fair bit of that againe, we do get a bit serious on a couple of topics. "The End" always brings a smidge more sober take-it-all in perspective.
Topics covered include:
- Kirk Douglas & Melissa Leo. The early peak.
- Dressing like a winner / Dressing like a nominee
- Cate Blanchett, Sharon Stone and other fancy dressers
- Nobody ever likes the hosts of the Oscar show. But Anne Hathaway & James Franco?
- Ovearching themes and production confusion: Old or Young?
- Why no visual gags for non-comedian hosts?
- Colin Firth, Christian Bale and Natalie Portman speeches
- Awards Fatigue (and strategies for coping)
- Next?
