The Oscars are this Sunday, March 10 and Aditi and Aidan sit down to discuss three of the Best Picture nominees: the Holdovers, Poor Things, and Oppenheimer. This episode, they explore the question of “What makes something Oscar-worthy?” and examine the role of the Academy in determining a film’s merit. Follow along as they exchange thoughts on the dichotomy between highbrow and lowbrow art, as well as the culture of shaming present in art criticism.
