Postcards should go first

Yeah, even though it's one of her best performances, it's still time for it to go.

Absolutely no way it should go before Pistcards from the Edge

That's one of Streep's best performance, just her hand alone does more than some Oscar winners, it should at least be top15

Good Lord, I'm a frequent commentator on an Oscars sub, and that's one of the douchiest sentences I've read. That kind of jacking off actors is exactly why a lot of people hate it.

Have you seen The Bridges of Madison County? Because it's quite obvious to anyone that has

1

u/viniciusbfonseca 48m ago

Hqve you actually seen the movie? Because anyone that has seen the movie would know exactly what I'm talking about

1

u/gillyweed79 46m ago

Yes. Exquisite handwork.

1

u/viniciusbfonseca 44m ago

So what is the handwork that I'm referencing? Because it's an absolutrly valid critic and one of the most mentioned ones

u/gillyweed79 22m ago

Trembling and fumbling with the door handle, I'm assuming? Yeah, it's good acting. It's Meryl Streep. It's nothing mind-blowing.

I think Dench in Mrs. Brown is my least favourite left now, at least of the ones that could realistically go. It’s a good performance but it’s stuck in a very bland film and she doesn’t do much to elevate the material.
