This has been out in the UK for ages (and I missed it...such the twat that I am)
Does it just seem more and more right that Sally Hawkins gets a Best Actress nomination?
I mean all the other contenders at the moment are in such serious fare, there is always that bright comic spot in the top 5 for a lead actress, Ellen Page, Meryl Streep, Judi Dench, Kate Winslet, Diane Keaton, Renee Zellweger are all recent nominees who had been in a comedy. Add to this the fact that when Leigh makes a popular movie that wins awards, the lead actress gets nominated (Secrets and Lies, Vera Drake).
This looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea what it was about, thought it was one of Leigh's moody dramas..s
But this just put a huge smile on my face!
