film buff scott roxboro hey scott fellow the shape of water great film one of the favorites nominated thirteen times do you think that movie is worthy of the best picture award which it won yeah yeah no i mean i thought actually the shoes a pretty good line up and if you look back at the oscars they tend to give their all honors the top honors best picture either to a fairytale story which this was this is literally a fish out of water story a sort of combination side high fantasy romance but it really is told like a fairy tale and you know usually the oscars though the best picture oscar goes to a fairy tale story like that or to a very socially relevant film you could make an argument that this film shape of water was both because it is a film of it is a fantasy story and a story about a sea creature that falls in love with a woman but it's also somebody socially well the because the woman is literally a woman with no voice in a time period one nine hundred fifty s. america where women have very little power and so it also plays into a lot of the the movements that were very well an

our film critic scott roxboro hi scott the ninetieth academy award so what will this be remembered by i think this might be the oscars it's remembered as being the most socially aware oscars i mean the maybe i'll become known as the woak oscars member of used to be any political discussion of the oscars was frowned upon i mean they used to play people off the stage if they would imagine it really blew them if they started talking politics on stage this was utterly different politics was center stage it was mentioned on stage by everybody pretty much by the host by most of the people commented they had social movement social activists on stage commenting people from me to people from time's up so i think it's really really has changed the sort of perspective and i think it has a lot to do with holywood trying to get in front of this and say we are the center of sort of political progressivism in the united states and we should own up to that be proud of it as opposed to trying to hide from it what about the need to movement in particular because this was also coming after this massive
