Introductions and Oscars

Hello Everyone! I hope you're all enjoying the weekend. Since the Oscars are right around the corner, I thought I would ask for an opinion. Here are the Best Picture nominees I've seen so far: 1917, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Ford v. Ferrari, The Irishman and Joker.

So, here's my question: Of the ones I haven't seen, which one would you absolutely recommend I see before the Oscars, if I was only able to make time to see one more? And in a few words, why? Thanks, and looking forward to your thoughts!

Amanda Toney

You have got to see PARASITE. it's brilliant. Also...make sure you play our 8th Annual Oscar pick contest: https://www.stage32.com/blog/8th-Annual-Stage-32-Oscars-Contest

Tasha Lewis

Welcome Brian!

Mark Mancini

There is something wrong with the contest where the picks aren't saving. I've gone through all the categories 3 times already and my entry has not been saved.

Brian Carlin

Hi Amanda! Good to hear from you! Thanks so much for suggesting Parasite. I've heard amazing things, so I will look into how I can see it. I have also submitted my Oscar pics, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Brian Carlin

Hi Tasha, nice to meet you. Mark, sorry to hear you're having trouble submitting the Oscar ballot. Not sure what's causing it, but I'm sure it will be resolved soon.

Jason Mirch

Glad to have you here Brian! I am the Director of Script Services at Stage 32.

Jason Mirch

Keep us posted on what you think is the best picture! I am curious to hear.

Brian Carlin

Hello Jason! Right now my guess is either 1917 or Once Upon a Time in Hollywood...but we shall see!

Tomasz Mieczkowski

Hi everyone - just a quick response to Mark. Sorry about that - looks like there's a new category this year for International Feature Film and that caused a bug in the poll. It's all working now. I triple checked it to be sure.

Sylvain Van Guerin

Hi Brian, my answer to your question is Ford v. Ferrari because of the great casting and the performance of the actors is absolutely fantastic.

Brian Carlin

Sylvain Van Guerin: Hello Sylvain! I agree with you on Ford v. Ferrari - every role in that film was perfectly cast, in addition to Bale & Damon.
