It looks like it’s that time of the year again. The 90th Annual Academy Awards are coming up this Sunday, so mark your calendars! I’ll be going over the nominees week by week so we can take a closer look at their writing process, and what went into these scripts specifically. I haven’t finished with the Golden Globe nominees yet, but luckily there’s a little overlap. I’ll make sure to add any of those that didn’t make it to the Oscars as well.
It feels like the Oscars are changing. I feel like a few years ago, some of these movies would never have made it on to this list. It’s a refreshing change, and something I hope to see continue.
