look out for paul mescal as one of the acting possibilities. "well, we know what's happening this year." "it's all about all quiet on the western front." "it's what everyone�*s talking about." i'm really interested in your take on that, a german language film, of course. yeah. extraordinary. it's a film that... this would be one of the first times, a film that's already won a best picture oscar in 1930 for lewis milestone�*s adaptation of it, which was english language, as an adaptation of a book that every german schoolchild reads at school, like we do first world war poetry here. everyone knows about it, but it's been rarely adapted for an international audience, particularly not told in the german language. and now it has been. fantastic performances, fantastic craft categories, built the trenches. if you think you've seen world war one movies before, and we have seen a lot of them, this does give a different perspective to it from the other side, and actually makes you think again about the futility of war. we know that war is futile, and w

one of those nominees was paul mescal, whose family facetime was sheer joy when they found out and supporting actor nominee brian tyree henry, writing in part to the random man in the elevator, who saw me scream at the news. thank you for hugging me and not freaking out, and diane warren and sofia carson nominated for best original song. but that category featured a pretty big omission. taylor swift's carolina shut out of that race, and it's not the only big snub this year. viola davis not nominated for the woman, king. james cameron not up for best director this year for avatar, and then there's this guy tweeting that the banshees havin a share in donkey was snubbed. meanwhile marcel the shell picking up a nomination for best animated feature. alright so i'm making like a little documentary movie, but nobody has any lines and nobody even knows what it is while they're making it. hmm slate who voices marcel and wrote the screenplay, sharing these real life photos of her emotional reaction to the news. uh that by the way, was my favorite film of last year. okay, so get this of the 20 spots for

you mentioned paul mescal, who so many people will know from normal people, he was in aftersun.ron decided it should be appraised, held a party. gwyneth paltrow put on instagram that they should look at the film. kate winslet hosted a viewing party, and so did amy adams. this happened in the last few days, and now andrea riseborough has an oscar nomination. i think they will get more in the box office. supporting women, and what that can do. i must mention all quiet on the western front, best picture and best international picture. but must be unusual. . . , international picture. but must be unusual. ., ., �* , unusual. parasite one best international, _ unusual. parasite one best international, but - unusual. parasite one best international, but this i unusual. parasite one best international, but this is i unusual. parasite one best| international, but this is on netflix, it is in the german language. it won at the 1930s oscar nominations in the english language. the person who made this possible is a scottish triathlete lesley paterson, who has an oscar nomination for adapte

plus you've got paul mescal who is the irish actor people know from normal people.udiences back. if you don't see tar in the cinema, you are losing out. if you don't see all quiet on the western front you are losing out on the experience. that is the difference. that's what we are getting things like avatar and top gun which brought loads of people back to the cinema, frankly it would have been in my top film as it is fantastic hollywood escapism and brilliant, and nominated justly. what film are you producing? can you tell us any more? a waiter in paris. it's about a young british boy who gets a job in a cut—throat parisian brasserie and becomes an authentic parisian to survive. hello. after some early morning snow showers caused disruption across parts of the uk. the good news for many is that these wintry showers will be easing more dry weather for the rest of the day. sunny spells as well, but it will stay cold. and this is because we are in an arctic airflow at the moment. these winds coming from the north, although as you can see, things are changing over the

paul mescal is in the tv show "normal people."n "tar" and also michelle yeoh from "everything everywhere all at once" and michelle williams, "the fablemans," everyone knew those would be in there. ana de armas who played marilyn monroe in "blonde" that dominated the razzie awards for the worst movie of the year. but she did a wonderful performance as marilyn monroe. and then andrea riseborough, a british act rows in to leslie that no one has seen that made $30,000. but there was this "a"-list campaign amongst a lot of her famous friends and she is wonderful in the movie. edward norton, jane fonda, all these people started tweeting on instagram about how great she was and look what happened. >> wow! any snubs? >> there were. no viola davis there. >> oh, no. >> for "the woman king" and danielle detwiler from "till" gave a breakout performance. unfortunately, the casualty of this strong last-minute campaign by andrea riseborough. >> incredible, too. >> let's talk about best picture. this is the big kahuna. >> "all quiet on the wester

again there's also paul mescal that i say superb about his star say is superb and about his star in the him before he becomes a huge star but it's about the push and pull between in what we want. paul was in what was your normal people? normal people? yes he was the male lead in normal people . so male lead in normal people. so he's a he's a that's a big from that role to that isn't it. it's very, very that's a big leap. yeah he was he was sweet, sensitive and makes it absolutely makes it he inhabits it. he's, he's magnetic accents. good. yes yes, very good. any idea i mean, do you share my interest southern dramas and let's let's bring in to kill a mockingbird. now you've seen that. well, yes there's has that aged. well it has absolutely. you can modern relevance and for that for example some of the most upsetting appalling racist language used in this modern play. yes it's taken directly from they keep it no what they've done is they've gone onune they've done is they've gone online looked into alt right sources and they've used current statements, attacks , vitriol statements, attack

instead, there's bill nighy and paul mescal, who are in very small movies. of attention for "elvis." he won the golden globe. the akd mip showed it really liked this movie "the banshees of inisherin" which is a colin farrell movie that got nine nominations. i think it's between those three, austin butler probably a little bit of the favorite, but any -- on the actress side, a very interesting story because there's an actress in andrea riseborough who was not on anybody's radar in a film called "to leslie," which literally grossed $30,000 in theaters. nobody saw this movie, but there was a campaign within hollywood amongst particularly the acting community, you post on social media, post screenings, hollywood is washington. there is politics amuck in the oscar race. and andrea riseborough got in in the best actress category because people were political and told other people to vote for her, even if the movie was seen by almost no one. >> that's amazing. >> cate blanchette in "tar," a chilling performance. i'm thinking on best actor, go ahead and just put bre

you got bill nighy for living, colin farrell, who bunches inishowen and paul mescal for aftersun, whichomination and for that production and as well as that andrea riseborough was a big she's up for best actress for her her role in two leslie which is a powerful of a woman who tends to alcoholism and so it really goes there to see those people nominated . it's why those people nominated. it's why we got supporting nominations for brendan gleeson, barry pierce and kerry condon . they're pierce and kerry condon. they're all for the banshees and sharon again , incredible production again, incredible production about ireland , an island off the about ireland, an island off the coast of ireland in the 1920s and the mcdonagh, who's a british irish director, writer he, he and he is also shortlisted because this she's a bit and sharon is a feature on best original screenplay really good news across board that a few did miss out i say you know it a shame olivia colman wasn't for empire of lights, but the best category is jam packed with talent. there and like i said, we have got andrea riseborou

you've got colin farrell, paul mescal, kerry condon . so i think you kerry condon.guys i think it good luck to you because i think you've got some pretty good competition. good, good, good . um, um, so pretty good competition. good, good, good. um, um, so i'm noticing this year, i mean, personally , i find the, the personally, i find the, the oscars nigh vomit making basically and their obvious aim obvious wokeness and the dirge that we're expected to watch and enjoy . i'm hearing there's some enjoy. i'm hearing there's some hope that proper movies like top gun maverick is up for a nomination and that's right because you're right i how often do we watch these award shows and? there aren't some movies that no one actually purchased a ticket to go enjoy in a theatre. this is the year of the blockbusters, you know, for movie of the year, you are getting top you're getting getting top gun, you're getting avatar that's in credible, too. and i don't know, top gun, maverick is my was really high up there but for me it's elvis almond please god let elvis take the top home b
