So stoked up receive my contributor copy of Martin Campbell’s perennially underrated No Escape. Beautiful work as always from Umbrella. Can’t thank @oneblakeminute.bsky.social enough for commissioning me for this.

THE UGLY STEPSISTER: Body Horror At The Oscars The writer/director of one of the year's best films joins her makeup team to discuss the film's many FX challenges, and its nomination at the Academy Awards.

Ahead of the Oscars, I spoke with director Emilie Blichfeldt and makeup designers Thomas Foldberg and Anne Catherine Saurberg about their excellent film, The Ugly Stepsister, and what that nomination means for a film like this. Read it here:

Might be my favorite lineup since 2017's of

Timothee Chalamet, Daniel Kaluuya, Daniel Day-Lewis and Denzel Washington. Ruined only, of course, by Gary Oldman's horrendous work (and win) for The Darkest Hour

Funny to see so much consternation about who might win Best Actor this year when I think, top to bottom, it's the best lineup we've had in many years. Not a bad performance in the bunch, in fact, all five are pretty terrific. Wouldn't be mad at any of em. It's Wagner Moura tho

One of the few movies I try to sell people on by simply saying "trust me, you've never seen anything like this before"

In case you’re wondering, yes, my history of the stuntman on film piece included in this set covers Daffy Duck in β€œA Star is Bored”

One of the great, under-rated movies.
