After 20 years, Michelle Williams is just as confused as the rest of us by a major Academy Award injustice.

minus-squareblitzen@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10arrow-down4·12 days agoBoth movies suffer from making societal statements, Crash about race and Brokeback Mountain about acceptance of homosexuality. Both movies were nominated so we could pat ourselves on the back. Neither movie was particularly good.
minus-squareshalafi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·12 days agoHaven’t seen either in ages, probably never will again. Crash struck me as hamfisted, but pretty good for a single viewing. Brokeback Mountain hit hard in the feels, maybe a little too hard, but I didn’t get the “in your face” vibe I got from Crash.
