Every year at the Oscars, there is a film that only gets nominated for its cinematography, yet has the potential to blow the category away. This is that film.

I liked the supporting cast of Norton, Barbaro, and especially Dan Fogler, with each playing more interesting historical figures than the film's chosen subject.
I remain bewildered, however, by America's continuing love affair with Timothee Chalamet. While the young star…Translated from by
