Now, to a lesser degree, the Amelia Perez team has also faced some flack for using AI cloning to widen Gascon's singing range. Amelia Perez led the Oscars race this year with 13 nominations. But I'm actually curious if you all think that these controversies have impacted this film's chance of taking home Best Picture. Linda, let's start with you and what you think will win.

Just to back up a little bit, in case you haven't heard about the AI controversy around the Brutalists, leads Adrian Brody and Felicity Jones were reportedly, their voices were fed into some AI software. And director Brady Korbe said in a statement that only their Hungarian dialogue was enhanced by the AI.

But also the film's editor said that generative AI was used as inspiration for some of the architectural drawings that are done by Adrian Brody's character. So, Stephen, what are your thoughts on what will win?

Yeah, yeah. I mean, one thing I will note is that it's also important to remember that the Oscars are ultimately decided through rank choice voting. And so it doesn't have to be everyone's favorite film. It just has to be enough people's maybe even second favorite film.

Yeah, and that's where you and I align, Glenn. I also think Onora is going to win. It won the Producers Guild of America Awards first. And since 2010, every winner of the PGA award has also won best picture with three exceptions. And then there was also one year where there was a tie between Gravity and 12 Years a Slave. 12 Years a Slave wound up winning the Oscars. So like,

I feel like the odds were kind of in Anora's favor, but we shall see. So we all said who we think will win, but like, who do we think should win? For me, I think Anora should win. I think it is, to me, the correct choice in part because it subverts expectations around genre.

You think it's going to be some sort of like sort of crime movie, but it's also a family comedy and a screwball comedy and a drama. And it just feels like a movie that's of the moment in a way that most of the other films in this pack do not land for me. It normalizes this depiction of sex work.

It also has this very matter-of-fact take on capitalism that I don't think is either subtle, but it's not preachy either. It's just very resonant.
