450 of Hollywood’s Jewish Community Denounce Jonathan Glazer’s Speech at the Oscars
This is certainly not something you see every day in Hollywood. Actual courage. It hardly ever happens that people put their names on the line to stand up for what they believe in. They aren't revoking Glazer's Oscar or anything like that. He isn't being "canceled." Glazer's speech angered many people, not just showbiz people either. Videos and social media posts cropped up on TikTok, Youtube, and X. Here is the Variety exclusive: More than 450 Jewish creatives, executives and Hollywood professionals have signed an open letter denouncing Jonathan Glazer’s “The Zone of Interest” Oscar speech. The list of co-signees provided to Variety Monday morning...

Civil War – “Least Woke Since American Sniper”
I was dreading Alex Garland's Civil War, I'm not gonna lie. I was dreading it because the collective fear on the Left about their imaginary villains on the Right makes me nervous every day. I'm not scared of the Right because I have spent time getting to know them. I have seen things from their point of view. I have...
Reframe: Scarface
Scarface, Brian De Palma’s nearly three-hour reach for epic-level greatness is seldom talked about as an actual film anymore. The movie (and particularly Al Pacino’s no-holds barred performance as gangster Tony Montana) have drifted so far into iconography that the quality of the film itself has become secondary to its legend. And it’s one hell of a legend at this...

Awards Daily's Megan McLachlan recaps what it was like to be in the Dolby Theatre for the 2024 Oscars. The 2024 Oscars have been put to bed, but if you're like me, you're still reeling from all the surprises (Emma Stone!), performances (I've had "I'm Just Ken" stuck in my head all week), and controversies (wait, Messi wasn't actually clapping?)....

TV Reviews: Springing Into a New Crop of Emmy-Contending Television
This week at the Water Cooler, we're springing (we love a pun) into the final gasp of the 2024 Emmy season.

Abe Sylvia On Celebrating the Diverse Superpowers of the Cast of the Sublime ‘Palm Royale’
Abe Sylvia's Palm Royale is about to be your next obsession. With an illustrious cast (more on that later), unapologetic 1960s color palette (the production design and costumes--my god!), and deliciously nimble writing and direction, Palm Royale takes the story of a social climber, but gives it a prickly and funny edge. It's a soap opera with real pathos and...
Oscars Telecast: Taking In the Show From Home and From Inside the Dolby
We're saying goodbye to the 2024 Oscar season this week at the Water Cooler.
