Why ten nominees for best picture




















It planned to make an announcement at the end of June, but the events of the last two weeks spurred the board to address bolder new initiatives on June New members invited to join the organization will be announced at the end of June. The first phase of the initiative outlines specific goals for the Oscars and Academy governance, membership, and workplace culture.

To that end, we will amend — and continue to examine — our rules and procedures to ensure that all voices are heard and celebrated. Academy leadership and our Board are committed to ensuring that we continue to weave equity and inclusion into the fabric of every Academy initiative, committee, program and event. In order to better reflect the diversity of the film community, the Academy is committed to encouraging equitable hiring practices and representation on and off screen.

And to ensure more diverse representation, and in collaboration with the Producers Guild of America, the Academy will create a task force of industry leaders appointed by Rubin and including governor and A Committee chair DeVon Franklin to develop and implement new representation and inclusion standards for Oscars eligibility by July Eligibility for films in consideration for the 93rd Academy Awards will not be impacted.

These standards could have a significant impact on how movies are made going forward — at least, the ones hoping to contend for Oscars. And, in a long overdue move, the Board of Governors passed a resolution to amend Academy bylaws to enact maximum governor term limits.

Once the amendment takes effect, governors will be allowed to serve on the board for up to two three-year terms consecutive or non-consecutive , followed by a two-year hiatus, after which eligibility renews for up to two additional three-year terms, for a lifetime maximum of 12 years.

The previous limit was three consecutive three-year terms, with a one-year hiatus, and no lifetime maximum. Critics Consensus: An actors' showcase enlivened by its topical fact-based story, The Trial of the Chicago 7 plays squarely -- and compellingly -- to Aaron Sorkin's strengths.

Carly Simon won an Oscar for her infectious theme song, but the film also features a stellar cast, including Harrison Ford and Sigourney Weaver, doing some of their finest work.

For extra credit viewing as we approach the holidays, we recommend Miracle on 34th Street. Even the most casual movie buffs know all about this one but very few remember it as an actual Best Picture nominee.

Nominated for a total of four Oscars and a winner for Supporting Actor Edmund Gwenn as the unforgettable Kris Kringle, this Christmas classic has lost none of its charm as little Natalie Wood finds her natural skepticism tested by a most unusual department store Santa. You had to consider lots of films because they were in conversation. The swirl of conversation is good for business, as we all saw this year. But good for whose business?

But showed that ten noms was going to benefit the indies. Animation was another bone of contention. To soothe both camps, AMPAS made an animated feature less likely to show up in best picture noms unless it gets many No.
