Discussing Oscar voters in the context of American voters always struck me a bit. The latter determines the fate of the nation. The former determines which celebrity will give a speech.
However, the choice of candidates for the Academy last week seems to be an exception. The actual and as a result -of -the -a -th -day evasion of changes that quickly sweeps the country.
President Donald Trump’s executive order pen has recently been running low ink because black and brown people have excluded programs that guarantee the location of the federal government. Send an agent to eradicate schools and church immigrants. Millions of transformers will convey millions of people by declaring that there are only two gender. And even in the eye -catching cruelty, we stop our efforts to remove land mines from foreign war zones as part of the first Agenda in the United States. “Professional limbs” is a strange voter father, but here.
The Academy has recently overdrained itself, but it is a very different spirit.
This is the first time that two international Oscar candidates have been nominated for Best Picture. One of them, France, supports Mexetto Emilia Perez, has gained more nomes than in English. The other is that I am still based in Brazil here, which was the best painting for many experts, but some voters entered. And don’t forget the Flow, a Latvian movie without a dialogue of an apocalypse kingdom that landed both international nominations and animated nominations. America’s first America? Not for these voters.
The first two movies talk directly to Trump’s agenda. Or to it. Emilia Perez is about the deep humanity of the transformer. And most people did not see it -it was just opened in the theater -I was still really destructive here, drift to authority in the right -wing military dictatorship in the 1970s Strict danger of. If you look at this historic mirror and no warning is displayed in the reflection, you are not working hard.
And they just hurt the surface. The brutal princess has been nominated for immigration struggles and victory, and the struggle and victory of life under fascism. (Mark Plat, a Wickid producer who was not ashamed of calling for similarities in the movie to present a movie politics, said, “The movie has the courage to find and speak your voice. He said he thought he was providing a blue photo. For the trauma facing the Jews, each will land the script nominated.
One of the biggest surprises is the Nickel boys (a movie about never forgetting the severe wounds of racial violence), despite the fact that many experts wrote it. I was caught in the category.
Finally, the apprentice star Sebastian Stan, who literally plays playing cards with severe insightful depictions, was given the best actor slot. When people (legally) are worried that Hollywood executives are dancing around Trump, the Academy goes out and praise a man who is not afraid of tango.
All of these reasons (except for voters’ consciousness) are, of course, DEI Initiative. As Trump was the first dominant in 2016, this was a movement that began in 2016 to diversify more backgrounds, countries, and experience in the academy. This cannot be released. The selection proves its permanent.
I know what you are thinking. What is the difference? So, what is the Academy, who filmed a movie that humanized social issues and gave them some statues? How do you change the policy? Are you emphasizing Hollywood impotence? Trump wants to change the direction of the government. Academy wants people not change the channel.
But I claim that they make a real difference. What Trump is doing is not only substantial, but also symbolic. This is a way to monitor the monitoring world that it is the purpose of the United States in 2025. More than American. It is our soul here. Or missing it.
However, the Academy has a symbolic tool. Hundreds of millions of people around the world are looking for clues about the US symbols. And what they can see this year is something at 180 degrees in the opposite direction from all of them: Trans people are interested in the life of immigrants, seeing other areas of the earth, and worried. Location discrimination, anti -Semitism, and naturalism. It is not only a rich opportunity, but also a place for understanding.
When he thought it was important to choose these Academy, I asked Ramel Ross, the writer and director of Nickel Boys. This is what he said:
“It is exaggerated to award and change movies, but I think it can be meaningless in a meaningless way. Maybe people were different. When you vote or respect, it’s a small ripple. I understand what I didn’t understand.
In other words, what we need more than ever.
