Show notes

As the Oscar nominations are announced, Sarah and Nancy ask whether 13 nominations for Oppenheimer, the treatment of Barbie and the omission of Greta Gerwig from the best director list reveals a reversion to type in Hollywood's attitudes to women. And they talk about Nyad, a film which has brought Oscar nominations for both Annette Bening and Jodie Foster - who is also on TV in True Detective. She is brilliant in both, which prompts a conversation about growing up with child stars. We've been watching Foster since she was nominated as best supporting actress for Taxi Driver 1976 - how does that knowledge of her on screen affect how we view her? Hosted on Acast.
