Two #1s again & no #10 because an unrelated video broke your list.

I think she’s not thinking that much about Pugh’s experience at all.

Certainly,  in television. And even within the film world, the Russos are in one of the least auteurist segments.

Was “reportedly” above supposed to link to this?:

This post could have been updated to link to this follow-up:

Cleopatra was the #1 film of the year... and STILL lost money because it was so expensive.

You didn’t mention the director: Justin P. Lange, whose debut feature “The Dark” was a decent riff on “Let the Right One In” with the POV changed to the undead creature (played by Nadia Alexander). I never saw his second film, “The Seventh Day”, because it didn’t get good reviews.

It’s been quite a while since I last heard Aries Spears name come up. I do sometimes link to MADtv’s “Ain’t No Blacks (On the TV Screen)”, and the last movies I watched were Dolemite ones (which I didn’t realize were real when first seeing him parody the character on MAD). I can’t say I expect this to derail his…

There were older movies that looked better.

Part of the reason Blanchett can take such pride in movies like Carol or Tár is that they explore new horizons for how sexuality gets portrayed onscreen

I don’t actually know which Reese performance you’re referring to. I just failed at pop culture on a pop culture site. Otherwise I agree there’s not much of a question with an actress as generally well-regarded as her.

I was under the impression they never actually got on set, as it was still pre-production. Shia could have alienated Pugh over Zoom or something though.

Florence certainly didn’t, as she expressed excitement to work with him.

We don’t actually know that Florence’s issue was one of “safety”. Perhaps one day Florence herself will discuss what happened, but for now she’s keeping mum.

He starred opposite Jessie Buckley in “Beast”.

Reviews for White Noise aren’t embargoed, it has a 70 on Metacritic now:

True Detective had a single showrunner, even while the first season had a single director (unlike the first season of House of the Dragon). The Knick was entirely directed by Soderbergh, but he wasn’t the showrunner.

Hard to say it’s among the “best” if you haven’t actually seen Blonde. On the other hand, I didn’t finish Little Nicky, but what I did see was enough to conclude it was terrible.

One can start with the Latino alignment chart:

Coppola has supported an actual convicted child rapist, so Shia’s baggage is small potatoes in comparison.
