Fantastic Beasts |
Florence Foster Jenkins
|
Jackie |
La La Land
|
Who will win? | ||||
This one is a very tough call, isn't it? If La La Land demands a sweep it demands a sweep but we could be surprised here with a win for Florence or Jackie - IN AN UPSET COLLEEN ATWOOD WON YET AGAIN |
||||
Who was left out? | ||||
Silence, Hail Caesar, The Handmaiden, Live by Night, Hidden Figures, The Dressmaker... there were so many beautifully costumed pictures available to them. |
||||
PRODUCTION DESIGN |
||||
Arrival |
Fantastic Beast and... |
Hail, Caesar!
|
La La Land |
Passengers |
Who will win? | ||||
La La Land might sweep but if it doesn't this would be a great place to reward Arrival, wouldn't it? | ||||
Who was left out? | ||||
So many gorgeous films. The Handmaiden won the LAFCA prize but didn't make their list which is a real shame. The most surprising omissions were probably Florence Foster Jenkins, Jackie, and Silence. But there were many strong period designs this year including The Founder, Live by Night, Fences, The Witch and more... |
