Instead of just jumping out in saying what I think of “Anora” winning the Oscars for best picture of the year I’ve decided to provide you with the why’s (below) for both sides and let Y-O-U decide. Then you can decide if it’s worthy of your attention.
SUPPORTING WHY
- Unique story with unpredictable characters that are generally well drawn out.
- Artistic nature of allowing the audience to take in what they wanted to without interrupting every detail in advance including the ending.
- Mickey Madison’s great performance
- Powerful makeup
- Good ending which allows the audience to think about the film way after the credits have rolled.
SUPPORTING WHY NOT
- Slow at times with dialogue not really going anywhere
- Cinematography was fine but not brilliant in anyway
- Many scene’s could have been cut out or at least shortened
- Too many F bombs that didn’t need to occur
- No consequences to any of the illicit actions that were shown. To the point of promoting said actions (drugs, prostitution etc)
