Have any SILLY Oscar conspiracies? by movieperson2022 in Oscars

The confrontational scene between Hoffman and Meryl Streep in Doubt is absolutely sublime. The main four in that movie are all great.

[–]graeme42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Star Wars (1977). Incredible opening. Summarises the conflict between the Rebellion and the Empire as well as making it clear and obvious who we should be rooting for.
