After nearly a year of very little to offer in the way of what this movie was going to look or feel like, The Weinstein Company has finally dropped the trailer for Tim Burton’s latest, Big Eyes. It’s the story of Margaret Keane, the artist of the famous ‘Big Eyes’ paintings in the 1950s that were attributed to her husband for decades.
The film, starring five-time Academy-Award nominee Amy Adams and two-time Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz opens Christmas Day.
Erik thanks his mother for his love of all things Oscar, having watched the Academy Awards together since he was in the single digits; making lists, rankings and predictions throughout the show. This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself at GoldDerby, led by Tom O’Neill and then migrated over to Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), headed up by Sasha Stone before breaking off to create AwardsWatch. He is a member of the International Cinephile Society, GALECA (The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics), the International Press Academy and is the founder/owner of AwardsWatch.
