Rhetorical Q?

Posted by grantv on March 4, 2025 at 08:00:06:
How come this famished looking actor gets best actor Oscars and a lot of sympathy? Who makes these movies?

I had to look this all up as I haven't watched any awards show for probably 40 years... so a grain of salt here.
1. Either they thought he was the best actor, they thought it was time for him to win one, they figured the people want him to win, or they just like him and his role was played well enough that they did anyway.
2. He got sympathy for what? That part I didn't see on my quick search.
3. Looking famished should preclude one from an award?
4. Different people for different movies.
