But is the worth it though? Cause I heard a lot of people that To Leslie ultimately wasn’t anything remarkable.

It has its flaws, but imo it is definitely more deserving than TL.

To Leslie ended up getting purchased by Netflix after the Oscar nomination, so it definitely made a difference financially

but i'm not sure how much it made a difference for Andrea Riseborough's career. she was seen as an underrated actress waiting for her big moment before but now she's mostly known for that Oscars campaign lol.

i have not seen either movie yet, but IIRC andrea was a stunning & brilliant performance in a somewhat predictable oscar-baity script/movie.

i think that's what made it so controversial in the first place - it was good acting, but still ended up being a mid movie outshining perhaps more deserving movies

andrea was always a talented actress tbh. she was by far the best part of that madonna shitshow called w.e. lol
