We had two films release this past weekend with the potential for Oscar nominations. West Side Story Steven Spielberg has been an Oscar mainstay for years now. His first nominations came in 1975 when his blockbuster (a term coined because of the film’s success) Jaws nabbed a Best Picture nomination. Outside a handful of misses,…

While Drive My Car has done well enough so far this Oscar season, Boston decided to surpass everyone and go all-in on the film, giving it several awards. You could probably ignore most of what they’ve selected as these picks are way outside the current conversation. Awards Tallies (4) Drive My Car (2) Licorice Pizza,…
