#they nominated blonde last year (a film that desecrated marilyn monroe’s image) but this is where the line gets drawn?

I was watching ABC’s coverage of the Oscar noms this morning and the first thing they talked about after all was announced was Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig’s snubs.

Clayton Davis (Variety) straight up said that it was genre bias and that he’d spoken to some members of the academy who all said a variation of “It’s just a fantasy comedy.”

I honestly don’t know what to say about these people who claim to be the all-knowing body of feminism, but won’t nominate a movie that perfectly embodied it.
