The latest awards have been announced and their way of nominating is a bit bizarre. People who vote in the acting categories don’t vote in picture and vice versa. Thus the absence of The Brutalist or The Piano Lesson in Best Picture is no indication that the films in Best Picture are thought to be better, just so by a different group of picture. That makes these selections even less helpful than they already were.
