NEON's been doing a lot recently, the deadline article from the post said that since November Sophia Bush, Ben Affleck, Regina King, Samuel L Jackson, Dave Chapelle (yuck) have all either hosted screenings or done q&as with Ava DuVernay to push this movie.

a24 could learn something from this lmfao

Neon didn’t do anything to push this film. Thats why Frances and Angelina have been hosting last minute screenings a la To Leslie. Neon dropped every ball they had.

I don’t think this will actually happen but it would be ironic for Neon if Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor ended up getting a nominated and Sandra Hüller missed.

I don't think she herself ever thought she would ever get to enter Angelina's house. 😂
