Hard Truths + The Last Showgirl + A Complete Unknown
This week, Izzy and Murtada highlight three films with a shot at Best Actor/Actress. First, a look at HARD TRUTHS, the latest collaboration from Mike Leigh and Marianne Jean-Baptiste that critics adore but has had trouble picking up wins from other awards bodies. Will Jean-Baptiste take home the BAFTA and secure the Oscar nomination? Next, they discuss Pamela Anderson’s unexpected and vulnerable lead turn as the titular Last Showgirl. Does the film have the juice to propel her to a Best Actress nomination? Finally, they attempt to unpack the ostensibly complex persona of Bob Dylan and Timothee Chalamet’s highly regarded performance in A Complete Unknown. Will the Academy’s musical biopic fetish push him over the line with Best Actor?
