290: Oscars Review

About this episode

The At The Flicks team reviews the recent Academy Awards, discussing key categories and their thoughts on the winners.

Just before Hollywood rolls up the red carpet for another year, the At The Flicks team steal it away for their review of the awards show. It’s like a Danny Ocean moment without any of the glamour, although Jeff and Graham are around the same age as the stars of those movies (if wider and shorter). But like all great heist movies, they bring in a reluctant member of the team. Yes, it’s Phil, brought in for his correct guessing skills as he worked out most of these awards in advance (and he tells us without cheating). Settle in for some team hijinks. Of course, if you’ve seen the recent Academy Awards ceremony, you will know that One Battle After Another was the big winner. Three awards, but only two rants from Jeff. Why only two, well, he has something positive to say about one of its award wins (hint – it’s not Sean Penn’s win). Just to be clear, the team don’t discuss all the awards, they just focus on: - Best Supporting Actress - Best Supporting Actor - Best Actress - Best Actor - Best Director - Best Film And of course as we have Jeff, there has to be a comment on the music win. That’s it – the awards season is over for another year, but you can relive the glory time and time…
