Hop in the Two-Man Booth with Nick & Neil as they head out on the road to the 93rd Academy Awards ceremony on 25 April 2021, breaking down and discussing the favourites for Best Picture (according to odds at GoldDerby.com)!
They start the episode discussing some movie industry news, with their thoughts on Warner Bros.'s decision to move their entire 2021 theatrical slate to their streaming service HBO Max for the first month of release for films like Godzilla vs. Kong, The Last Saint of Newark, Wonder Woman 1984, The Suicide Squad, Dune, and The Matrix 4 (3:45).
They then get into their discussion about the new Netflix film MANK from director David Fincher and starring Gary Oldman, Amanda Seyfried, Lily Collins, and Tuppence Middleton, a biopic focusing on Herman Mankiewicz, one of the accredited screenwriters (along with star and director Orson Welles) of Citizen Kane, widely regarded as the best film in cinematic history. It's told from Mankiewicz's perspective on the script as influenced by his alcoholism, political views in 1930's California, career in Hollywood, and relationships with industry elites (20:50).
