Nominalizările la Premiile Oscar 2021, anunțate astăzi, merg, în parte parte, către producții și prestații care subliniază, într-un fel sau altul, probleme sistemice (sociale, administrative, politice), prezentând cu empatie povești de viață din diverse colțuri ale lumii și ale istoriei.
Iată că pentru România, documentarul „colectiv”/ „collective”, care urmărește ancheta echipei Libertatea în cazul Hexi Pharma, după tragedia ingendiului din clubul colectiv, aduce două nominalizări importante, în categoriile Cel mai fun film străin și Cel mai bun film documentar. E pentru prima dată când Propunerea României la Oscar (contestată de multe voci care n-au văzut filmul sau care au strâmbat din nas la nominalizarea unui documentar) se regăsește pe lista finală a nominalizărilor în două categorii. Și asta, în contextul în care, la noul concurs CNC, suplimentarea susținerii pentru filmul documentar, în urma numeroaselor discuții cu profesioniștii din industrie, nu există (procentul alocat documentarului la noua sesiune de concurs rămâne de 10% – Anunt concurs de proiecte cinematografice, ses. I 2021 – CNC).
Felicitări regizorului Alexander Nanau, întregii echipe „colectiv”, distribuitorilor Bad Unicorn și HBO Europe pentru toate eforturile de-a duce acest film aproape de spectatori și de a-l promova în străinătate (unde a obținut o căruță de premii, desigur, probabil cele mai importante adunate de un documentar românesc până acum).
În ce privește LISTA COMPLETĂ A NOMINALIZĂRILOR LA PREMIILE OSCAR 2021 (adică ediția 93), anunțată astăzi virtual de Pryanka Chopra și Nick Jonas, aceasta aduce niște surprize interesante:
- ‘Mank’ are cele mai multe nominalizări – 10
- Netflix a adunat 35 de nominalizări pentru 16 filme (printre care „Mank”, ”The Trial of the Chicago 7” și „Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom”). Își mai aduce aminte cineva de debutul Netflix în cursa greilor cu „Roma”? Disney are 12 nominalizări, iar Warner 6.
- „The Trial of the Chicago 7” are 6 nominalizări (care nu includ categoria regie), la fel ca „Judas and the Black Messiah”, „The Father”, „Minari,” „Nomadland” și „Sound of Metal”, iar „Promising Young Woman” urmează în clasament cu 5 nominalizări.
- La 83 de ani, Anthony Hopkins devine cel mai în vârstă actor nominalizat în categoria Best Actor („The Father”)
- 9 din cei 20 de actori nominalizați fac parte din minorități etnice. E un record în ce privește diversitatea. Chadwick Boseman („Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom”) e primul actor de culoare ce primește postum o nominalizare la Oscar. Steven Yeun e primul actor asiatic-american nominalizat în categoria Cel mai bun actor, Yuh-jung Youn e prima actriță coreeană nominalizată la Oscar, iar Riz Ahmed e primul actor de origine pakistaneză care primește o nominalizare la Oscar (să ne amintim cu mare drag de Yul Brynner, de origine mondolă care a câștigat premiul pentru Cel mai bun actor în 1956 pentru „The King and I” și de Ben Kingsley, jumătate indian, care a câștigat premiul pentru Cel mai bun actor în 1982 pentru „Gandhi.”). „Judas and the Black Messiah” e primul film cu o echipă de producție formată din profesioniști de culoare — Shaka King, Charles D. King and Ryan Coogler — care primește o nominalizare în categoria Cel mai bun film.
- Chloe Zhao e prima femeie de origine asiatică nominalizată pentru regie și prima femeie care primește patru nominalizări la o ediție de Oscar.
- Lakeith Stanfield și Daniel Kaluuya, colegi în ‘Judas and the Black Messiah’ concurează în aceeași categorie – cel mai bun actor într-un rol secundar.
- Glenn Close e nominalizată la Oscar pentru a opta oară (a patra pentru Cea mai bună acriță într-un rol secundar).
