News about Holly Hunter

Every actor in Hollywood hopes to be praised for their hard work, as well as the fact that they were unable to be recognized for their hard work. Whether it's an Oscar, a Tony, or a Golden Globe, Tinseltown's top attender awards showcases each year in the hopes that it will be their name that is called. However, not everyone can win an award, and some have had rather obnoxious reactions when they didn't win.

Fans of season four's final episode, "Succession," were curious about Shiv's choices. Shiv has been something of a stranger compared to her brothers and dad throughout the series, and she was brought to life by Sarah Snook. Kendall Strong (Jeremy Strong) was chosen from an early age to replace his father's replacement. Roman (Kieran Culkin) served with Waystar Royco, but he was still a mess. Connor (Alan Ruck), the older brother, was always on the outside but not by choice. Even Shiv's husband, Tom (Matthew Macfadyen), is a partner of the firm. Shiv is supposed to be the conservative family's liberal daughter, and in another story, she'd be the voice of reason who leads the family to the left. A hero. That's what some fans hoped would happen leading up to the final episodes: Shiv will end the cycle in which her family is trapped. Shiv has always been a lovely portrait of a white, wealthy feminist, who has used so-called feminism to benefit her and then stumbling everyone else in the process. Logan (Brian Cox), her father's eulogy, in episode nine, is a good example of this. "It's been difficult to be his daughter," she says. "He was very difficult on women." . This is the case. . He couldn't reach a whole woman in his head." That's a brash understatement of a man who was flat out verbal and/or sexually involved in a marriage that was abused to women he was involved in professionally and/or sexually. "But he did OK, Dad," Shiv says of him. Even as death, she covers for him because it's what she does best — to be the grieving daughter who can criticize her old man but not too much.

The 2023 Oscars saw "Everything Eleven All At Once" clinch many of the night's most coveted awards, ranging from best picture to best actress. Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert's beloved multiverse-hopping masterpiece, which also won big accolades for Michelle Yeoh and Ke Huy Quan, was an extraordinary night for them. Even so, for every winner, there must be a loser, and "Everybody Else" was a hit movie that left many other films, from "Avatar: The Way of Water" to "Tár," entirely out of contention. Despite deserving candidates, most of the show's winners were well-received. The track "Naatu Naatu" from "RRR" brought home the best original song, leaving out Lady Gaga and Rihanna after touching performances by each actor during the performance, though Lady Gaga's ecstatic reaction to the Tollywood song's triumph says it all. Meanwhile, some supporters, like first-time nominee Paul Mescal, were just glad to be there, while others, such as Hugh Grant, were miserable for reasons that had nothing to do with the evening's winners or losers. Nevertheless, some losses were more traumatic than others.

We're getting to the point of sounding like a busted record, but the Oscars are still struggling to figure out how to honor Black talent. The Academy announced its nominations on Tuesday, which included a number of first-time honorees, historians, and overdue awards. However, the most notable flaw on the nominee list was the complete absence of women (specifically Black women) and Black actors in lead categories, which is a repeat offence from the Academy. Remember #OscarsSoWhite? Every year, film enthusiasts wait to see if the Oscars will bring together a nominee pool that isn't solely made up of all-male, all-white, or otherwise non-inclusive candidates, but the sad truth is that this time of year brings about a lot of disappointment. There's reason to celebrate: The 2023 Oscar nominations for Asian American actors, as per "Everywhere Everybody, All at Once"'s 11 nominations (which includes Michelle Yeoh's nomination for best actress in a leading role, the first Asian-identifier in the category), and Hong Chau's best supporting actress nomination for "The Whale" have all been a huge success for Asian American actors. Despite these advancements, Black actors and producers were still on the short end of the stick (again).
