Oscars Reactions (Some Choices Were… Interesting) with MacKenzie Green

As promised, MacKenzie Green and I share our Oscars reactions, and thoughts on just about everything: 

- Awards season and Oscar campaigning 

- Timothée Chalamet discourse 

- Misty Copeland’s performance 

- Sinners on Broadway?? 

- Criticism of Sean Penn winning Best Supporting Actor 

- The historical context of Black Oscar winners, and why Michael B. Jordan's win is so HUGE

- Comparisons to past controversial Oscar wins (think Green Book vs Black Panther) 

- Distinctions between authentic cultural storytelling (like Sinners) and films by those outside the culture for performative or superficial benefit
