Members of the American Academy of Art and Film Knowledge decide about whose hands will hit. At the moment there are over ten thousand, including less than a thousand retired, without voting. However, even those who can complete the voting card, They do not have decision -making in each category, but only in one from a dozen or so – the one they belong to. Therefore, who wins is a much smaller number than ten thousand and really One vote can be of great importance.
Oscars – one voice can really decide here
Meanwhile, Clayton Davies from Variety looked at this year’s vote. The Academy does not provide official turnout data. It is known that this year 9,945 members of the Academy of Art and Film Knowledge were entitled to vote, and industry experts estimate that involvement in organizations of this size can range from 30 to 70 percent. This great divergence. That is why a journalist with 84 members of the Academy, representing various demographic groups (including age, position in the industry and nationality) and tried to deduce what could happen on Sunday night.
The Oscar Gala is scheduled for March 2 And then the statuettes will be presented. Davies learned, among others, that in the category of the best leading male role, in which the favorites of many seem to be Adrien Brody (“Brutalist”) and Timotche Chalamet (“completely unknown”) quite a lot of votes also got Colman Domingo (“Sing Sing Sing Sing “), especially Ralph Fiennes (” conclave “).
They thought he had won earlier
“I would even go to say that If Brody lost, it would be in favor of Fiennes. One of the voters, as part of his support, refers to the stunning career of the British actor: he is one of the best actors who never ceased to be great, “writes the journalist” Variety “. Let’s hope, however, that two situations will not get on the resultsabout which Davies reports. It turns out that the two elects in this category of academy members did not vote for Fiennes because they stated that “he had won”. They were convinced that he won the Oscar for “Schindler’s list” in 1993. And yet he lost to Tommy Lee Jones – he got an Oscar for his role in “Patched”.
One of the interlocutors, when the journalist made him aware of his mistake, he was jokingly cursing. It is even more interesting when it turns out that both members of the academy decided to vote for Brody who he actually won the Oscar For the “pianist” (2002) … The question is whether there were more such cases.
