Griffin has one month to fine-tune his “Turn the Lights Down Low” rendition

I'm halfway through the novel now :( Is there an existing "definitive" adaptation? I've been meeting to see the Arnold, but maybe the Wyler would be the place to start?

Ahead of tomorrow's Shortlist, here's my preferred lineup of 15. Not a sterling year (...compared to what...), but there are some keepers hidden in there! "Clouds Away" - Arco "Our Love" - The Ballad of Wallis Island "Fight Like a Girl" - Ballerina "The Risk" - A Big Bold Beautiful Journey 1/3

Another year of marveling at the Best Original Song submissions. This year has a 2x Platinum-selling single, our first AI-generated(!) submission that's also under litigation(!!), and more Diane Warren knockoffs than you think are possible. As well as, obv, the genuine article. Feast or famine:

Goes without saying that the great state of Wisconsin made me happy today, and feeling particularly proud of the turnout and (yes, expected) blowout in my beloved Dane County. Forward!

This week I caught up with Mike Leigh’s HARD TRUTHS, a film I’ve been in the tank for since it announced early last year. Happiness is just one of many intense emotions it brings me. A highlight: the presence of a bouquet of flowers and its treatment by three separate characters. Mike Leigh 4ever

A scene from Hard Truths with its six principal characters.

Omg a mirror-image experience: during my intermission tonight a group of older women were like “And now this got a lot but that Emilia Perez got the most! I’m so looking forward to seeing that one.” A real before/after between us.

To crib from NPR’s Pop Culture Happy Hour, and to maintain my sanity, my goal is to post something (anything) that made me happy this week for…as long as I can! To begin: I’ve got a Hex Hector playlist regularly on shuffle, and this track has by far taken the lead. open.spotify.com/track/6qOokT...

Ahead of tomorrow's Shortlist announcement, here's my preferred lineup. What I'd give to have a lineup of these otherwise extremely non-Oscary movies... "Electric Energy" from "Argylle" "Compress/Repress" from "Challengers" "Custer Park" from "Dandelion" "Mi Camino" from "Emilia Perez" 1/3

Devastated to say that no, her songs were either not submitted or (more likely) not eligible. Justice for “Release”

For anyone who feels the way I do about the Best Original Song category, you know this is the week (post-eligibility report, pre-Shortlist) when the veil is thin and you have mere days to obsess over the state of original film music. Gonna dump some opinions/insights here, and for your perusal…

I haven’t seen the film yet but this “& Jones” shoutout is truly the first of its kind to cross my feed, even though she’s like consistently in Oscar prediction lists. Is she worthy, do you think?

Do you think we’ll need to rely on Flix Brewhouse for a release like this at this point? I remember when Mistress America only played at Marcus Palace, that was a confusing one.
