In Reply to: Oscars are not categorically restricted to American films, i.e. "Parasite" won this year. posted by tinear on April 8, 2020 at 05:50:39:
and speaking of Blanchett, if you have not seen Blue Jasmine you should check it out... her performance there was nothing short of amazing. Personally, I would put Blanchett in a different category than those you mentioned as IMO she is light years more talented than any one of those...As far as Parasite goes, I really object to Foreign films being considered for Best Picture and as I said the Oscars is an award to celebrate American films not the foreign film community.... This year was just another example of the march to globalization. A HUGE misstep IMO....
