'Mank' leads Oscar nominations in a year of record diversity

[frazzled]

8. Me either

And I am a fan of Orson Wells and Citizen Kane and black-and-white films and was really looking forward to it. I didn’t like the script, I didn’t care for the cinematography (the gray scale made it largely illegible at times, and it bore no relationship to b&w films of the period).

I did enjoy Amanda Seyfried’s performance of the Marion Davies, though it seemed to rather glamorize and intellectualize her more than she deserved.

Not in my top films of the year. But Hollywood loves stories about Hollywood.
