HE agrees that Barbie’s Greta Gerwig completely deserved an Oscar nomination for Best Director, certainly for the imagination, moxie and spunk that lifted her pink epic off the ground.
The idea of Anatomy of a Fall s Justine Triet or The Zone of Interest Jonathan Glazer taking her slot…I really don’t get it.
Unless the Academy’s mostly male director’s branch had a bug up their ass about Barbie’s misandrist satire…who knows? There’s no question that Barbie pretty much despises the XY community or at least regards them with a measure of contempt or pity…c’mon.
That said, “Marty the Martell”’s 1.23 Reddit post struck me as moderately sensible and perceptive as far as it went.
