The debut of the expanded Best Picture field brought about a new magnanimity in Oscar voters.
(They got points for each nomination, but you lost the whole game if they won anything.)
What are the odds of any Best Picture nominees blanking this year?
Heavyweights1917andParasiteare safe, since each has a category it can rely on in Cinematography and International Film, respectively.
But for the remaining quartet of nominees, Sunday night could be much more nerve-racking.
But dont write off the films whimsical aesthetic in the two craft categories its nominated in, either.
And a win in Film Editing, where1917wasnt nominated, could be in play as well.
Im just saying: It is what it is.
Two spots on the ballot stick out.
I suppose itspossiblePitt could shoot someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue.
Its gotta be broad daylight, though.
