This week, we go with the FLOW (07:57) as we review the winner of the Best Animated Film at this year’s Oscars; get double the de Niro in Barry Levinson’s mob drama THE ALTO KNIGHTS (18:50); and follow a rookie female officer’s eye-opening induction in Sandhya Suri’s SANTOSH (35:55).

Plus, in our HOT TAKE (48:37), Cate Blanchett makes the case that award shows should no longer be televised… is she right?
