No disrespect to Mahershala, but was hoping for a Rcihard E. Grant upset - have loved him so long & he was perfect in that role.

The couple in 1978 on the set of the film “The Legacy”
Awful film, but worth it for birthing such an epic romance!

Lindsay Vonn looking like the Chicken Lady from "The Kids in the Hall"
Ahahaha! A+ reference right there!

On the more disgusting side, some actors in Mexico's film community have disparaged "Roma" star Yalitza Aparicio for not being a real actress and that she did nothing but say, "yes, ma'am, no, ma'am". If this was just on the level of her skill I would let the actors have their say; I mean, I didn't think Sam Rockwell warranted a nomination. But their complaints about Aparacio stems from her being an Indigenous woman and their complaints are rooted in classism.
That's terrible. I've not seen Roma yet but every review singles out her performance.I hope she goes on to book more roles, to show those nasty trolls up!

I was hoping that he would pull it. I remember the year Alicia Vikander won for "The Danish Girl" and she wasn't the presumptive winner. I was hoping for a repeat of that. I think Mahershala was more deserving this time than for "Moonlight" but I can't say he was more deserving than Grant in this instance. Grant really was a joy this season.

They are hanging tough. So wonderful.
