Dolo Flicks: The Case For Mia Goth And Horror Films To Gain Acknowledgement

The views and opinions expressed on this website are solely those of the original authors and other contributors. These views and opinions do not necessarily represent those of Frontproof Media, the Frontproofmedia.com staff, and/or any/all contributors to this site.

It's at the point where it might be overstated to say that 2022 was a tremendous year for the horror genre. Films like Smile overperformed at the box office, generating over $200 million worldwide, and critically, there were many high-quality entries. One of the pivotal franchises in the genre made its return at the beginning of the year. The fifth film in the Scream franchise was well-received by both fans and critics.

The most significant success story of 2022 belongs to Damien Leone's Terrifier 2. With only a quarter million budget, the brutal slasher grossed over $13 million at the worldwide box office. The film also successfully established Art The Clown as a new major horror icon. And Lauren LaVera's Sienna Shaw was one of the most memorable final girls in the past decade. But, when it comes to the world of horror, Ti West and Mia Goth stood above the rest in 2022.

Surprisingly Director Ti West put out two films in 2022, the first being a 1970s-style slasher, X. The movie explored themes of pornography and how aging impact's one's perception of sexuality and attraction. A few months later, a prequel to X was released called Pearl centering on one character and her downward spiral further into her psychosis. In X, Goth played two characters, the young Maxine Minx and the film's antagonist, the elderly Pearl. Goth does an extraordinary job in dual roles, using her broad skillset to play two characters at vastly differing points in their lives.

However, it's in Pearl where Goth goes to greater heights. Pearl focuses primarily on one character, keeping the film's attention on Goth. There are numerous memorable sequences throughout Pearl, but the ending monologue in the film's finale is just as extraordinary as it is painful. The camera lingers on Goth putting every word and emotion on display. The horror community, in general, has praised Goth's performances in both X and Pearl. However, the question is if she will receive any recognition from film establishments such as the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

"I believe Pearl has fundamentally changed me as a performer," said Goth in an interview with Variety. "It's given me a whole new sense of self and a whole new level of confidence in terms of what I think I am able to do. It was a lot, but also just incredibly rewarding and such a gift to play. I really feel as though it fundamentally changed me in many ways for the better."

Much like comedy, the horror genre has often been ignored, with actors in those films being overlooked. However, while it seldom takes place, there have been actors who have been recognized for their roles in horror by the Academy.

Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho in 1960 saw Janet Leigh earn a nomination for best supporting actress as Marion Crane. The character, to much acclaim, was shockingly killed off in the film's first act, which was a surprise to audiences. At the end of the decade in 1968, Ruth Gordon won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role as the nefarious devil-worshiping neighbor Minnie Castevet in Roman Polanski's Rosemary's Baby.

In the 1970s, two of the horror genre's most influential films were recognized by the Academy. 1973s The Exorcist was the first horror film to be nominated for best picture and received an unprecedented ten nominations in total. Linda Blair, Jason Miller, and Ellen Burstyn all received respective nominations for Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Actress. Blair would win a Golden Globe award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as the possessed Regan MacNeil.

Brian De Palma is often cited as one of the most prominent filmmakers of all time. Directors like Quentin Tarantino and Edgar Wright regard him as an inspiration. During his streak of non-stop classics in the 1970s and 80s, De Palma put out one of his most substantial entries in 1976s, Carrie. Sissy Spacek was nominated for Best Actress as the lead character, Carrie White. A performance that has not been duplicated in any attempts of a sequel or remake. Piper Laurie was also nominated for Best Supporting Actress as Carrie's overbearing and psychotic mother, Margaret White.

The 1990s saw the horror genre arguably reach its pinnacle thus far, with films that strayed away from the slasher killer icons of the 1980s focusing more on the psychological and crime thriller. One of horror writer Stephen King's most acclaimed film adaptations came with Rob Reiner's Misery in 1990. In one of the most memorable performances of the decade, Kathy Bates won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role as crazed fan Annie Wilkes.

The most noteworthy film, as far as critical acclaim is concerned for horror, came in 1991s, The Silence of the Lambs. At the time, the movie was one of three films, including 1934s It Happened One Night and 1975s One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, that won the five major categories at the Academy Awards. The film won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay. Anthony Hopkins won Best Actor for his role as cannibal serial killer Dr. Hannibal Lecter. Jodie Foster won Best Actress for playing FBI Agent Clarice Starling. To this day, The Silence of the Lambs is the only horror film to win the Best Picture category.

The end of the 1990s witnessed the dawn of a new generation of directors. Notably, M. Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense earned six Oscar nominations. Haley Joel Osment as Cole Sear was nominated for Best Supporting Actor. Ironically, Toni Collette as Cole's mother, Lynn Sear, was nominated for Best Supporting Actress.

Over the last decade, Collette was infamously snubbed for her stellar showing in 2018s Hereditary. In some ways, Collette not receiving any recognition from the Academy in Hereditary is a catalyst that highlights the importance of Mia Goth's performances in X and specifically in Pearl being acknowledged.

History has shown that critics and the elite haven't entirely shunned horror, but recognition has been too infrequent. Most recently, Natalie Portman won an Oscar in 2010 for Best Actress in Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan. Years later, in 2017, Jordan Peele's Get Out received numerous nominations, including Daniel Kaluuya for Best Actor.

In all likelihood, this is just the beginning for Mia Goth, who has yet to turn 30 years of age. She will go on to star in an abundance of films with roles that are to be looked upon fondly by both fans and critics. Acting is about conveying emotion; horror films demand a ton from the performers. It puts them in situations that can be far-fetched but also perilous.

This isn't to say that actresses such as Cate Blanchett, Margot Robbie, Michelle Williams, Michelle Yeoh, Viola Davis, or Danielle Deadwyler don't deserve any nominations or awards coming their way or that Goth's performance eclipsed theirs. But Mia Goth has more than a case of being right next to them. And she should be.

Modern Adaptations based on Pygmalion

The Audrey Hepburn classic ‘My Fair Lady’ is actually based on the 1913 play ‘Pygmalion’ by George Bernard Shaw.

The movie (and play) has inspired its own trope in pop culture though and the iconic makeover scene, most famously with the movie She’s All That starring Rachael Leigh Cook and Freddie Prinze Jr.. This garnered its own spinoff, He’s All That, over 20 years later and formed the basis of the greatest parody movie to exist: Not Another Teen Movie starring Chris Evans and Chyler Leigh.

I don’t think Shaw intended for his playwriting to lead to Chris Evans wearing a wearing a whipped cream bra but here we are

Girls Night for English Majors

Modern Adaptations of Shakespeare

Shakespeare has inspired many, many, many iterations over the years - the most popular being Romeo and Juliet which has become a trope in itself.

There are so many more famous examples, but 2000s romcoms are without a doubt the best (all my opinions are correct)

10 Things I Hate About You based on The Taming of the Shrew

She’s the Man based on Twelfth Night

John Tucker Must Die based on Merry Wives of Windsor
