On this 52nd Oscar podcast, the last of the 2016-2017 awards season, I’m honored to have AwardsDaily‘s Sasha Stone and Ryan Adams as guests for the post-Oscar post-mortem.
After last night’s historic win for Moonlight in Best Picture and an announcement fiasco unlike anything the Academy Awards have ever seen before, there is a lot for Stone, Adams and myself to talk about.
Between our personal appreciation for Moonlight (and La La Land, for that matter) the conversation traverses politics and emotions as we analyze the academic reasons for the film’s success and why it was so important that it won.
We cover the perceived backlash and controversy that arrived late for La La Land, what streaks and records were broken last night and which ones held true, including that Best Actor SAG stat where we saw Denzel Washington lose to Casey Affleck.
This podcast runs 1h 36m with music.
Intro: A24’s ‘Moonlight’ trailer featuring music from Nicholas Britell’s Oscar-nominated score
Outro: Thomas Newman’s “New York City By Day” from the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack of Desperately Seeking Susan
