Connected to

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: 2 lines industry ×2

  1. industry (industry): 1917 → Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. A friend says 1917 may be the last big awards-worthy global release before the gate closed, alongside Joker, Once Upon a Time and Endgame.
    “we might look back on 1917 as the last movie that got in before the gate closed”
    The Big Picture · 300th Episode Ask-Us-Anything Mailbag Spectacular · 0:34:11 · Sean Fennessey (0.80 sure it was them)

Roger Deakins: 2 lines craft ×2

  1. craft (craft): Roger Deakins → 1917. Next episode covers 1917 and the life's work of Roger Deakins.
    “we'll also be talking about the life's work of one great man named Roger Deacons.”
    The Big Picture · The Snubs and Surprises of the 92nd Academy Award Nominations | The Oscars Show · 0:53:35 · Sean Fennessey (0.60 sure it was them)

Joker: 1 line industry ×1

  1. industry (industry): 1917 → Joker. Speaker expected 1917 rather than Joker to lead nominations, since 1917 is technically accomplished.
    “I think I expected that to go to 1917, which is a little bit recency bias and also just because I expected 1917 to grab every single technical nomination”
    The Big Picture · The Snubs and Surprises of the 92nd Academy Award Nominations | The Oscars Show · 0:02:28 · Sean Fennessey (0.60 sure it was them)

Malcolm & Marie: 1 line industry ×1

  1. industry (industry): Malcolm & Marie → 1917. Like 1917 last year, Malcolm & Marie is a late-entrant Oscar movie that is suddenly competing everywhere with a ready-made narrative.
    “This is definitely what 1917 was to the Oscar race last year, the kind of late entrant that's like, oh, okay, this is competing in every category and is going to be really noisy”
    The Big Picture · Thirteen Awards Movies to Watch Out for, Oscar Do-Overs, and More From the Mailbag · 0:31:45 · Sean Fennessey (0.70 sure it was them)

Marriage Story: 1 line contrast ×1

  1. contrast (contrast): Marriage Story → 1917. Showy, aggressive filmmaking cleaned up while Marriage Story, a chamber piece, did not.
    “And marriage story is a chamber piece in a lot of ways.”
    The Big Picture · The Snubs and Surprises of the 92nd Academy Award Nominations | The Oscars Show · 0:12:18 · Sean Fennessey (0.50 sure it was them)

Parasite: 1 line industry ×1

  1. industry (industry): Parasite → 1917. Last year was the rare time the PGAs missed: they picked 1917 and Parasite won.
    “They went with 1917 and then parasite one.”
    The Big Picture · Top Five Gen X Director Debuts, the Fate of ‘Black Widow,’ and a Potential Oscars Disaster · 0:24:23 · Amanda Dobbins (0.60 sure it was them)

Paths of Glory: 1 line contrast ×1

  1. contrast (contrast): Paths of Glory → 1917. The single whistle-blowing sequence in Paths of Glory is more harrowing than all of 1917's unrelenting one-shot.
    “the one whistleblowing sequence with Douglas for me is so much more harrowing and tense than anything in 1917”

  1. craft (craft): 1917 → Roger Deakins. A host likens the question of cutting Top Gun to a past Big Picture episode, a podcast celebrating Roger Deakins's cinematography on 1917, that asked whether to cut 1917.
    “should we cut 1917 from a Roger Deacons podcast celebrating his work on 1917”

    “3 people who made films who have been hugely recognized in the past Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorsese and Sam Mendes.”
