Do any of you follow Richard E Grant on Instagram? I feel for him, losing his wife, but his IG can be so hammy. He reposted this guy taking him off.It is him to a T. The same guy does Kiera Knightly and Adele.



He didn’t take it well when Limmy impersonated him like this

He's one of my favourite follows - he has an American mum and posh Dad and his take offs are hilarious!!

Freed last month, straight back on it. You are right he will never change. What a horrible vile human being. 😡 Waste of oxygen.
He's had his chance , there should be no more chances. Despicable man.

P.s. he should never have been released and just goes to show some people are beyond rehabilitation. Scum.

I agree to a point of "done their time" very rarely, but if someone doesn't do the courses,etc in prison then they shouldn't be released or tit load of time added to it.

Being honest I am getting seriously fed up of the weeping over his "bravery", yeah he was groped and that should never have happened but these are the same people that gave Roman Polanski a standing ovation, they can all get in the bin.

Getting your arse groped is just a standard day for women but Fraser will weep his way to an Oscar for it. Yes I am aware I sound like a bleep and I am fine with that.
According to a blind item , it was allegedly a set up to get him an Oscar on the sympathy vote .

wait, that the groping was a set up?!

it happened in 2003 and brendan f first spoke about it in 2018 - that’s one hell of a long game to play for a sympathy vote?! (also, philip berk admitted to doing it!)

I want to preface this by saying Everything Everywhere All at Once was a phenomenal movie, I adored it and literally couldn't bring myself to blink at some points because I didn't want to miss a single frame.

BUT. I think Cate Blanchett in Tar was absolutely miles ahead of Michelle Yeoh's performance in EEAAO. There was so much more nuance in her performance. And again, I bleeping adored EEAAO.

I'm disappointed to see people (not pointed at anyone in this thread, I mean generally) act like Cate doesn't 'deserve' it just because she's unlucky enough to be up against a woefully under-respected actress. If she wins, she earned it by putting on a genuinely amazing performance. The Academy's problems with race and horribly stale voting committee shouldn't mean we denigrate genuinely talented actresses.
Cate Blanchett gave the best performance of her career in Tár in my opinion, as well as the best female leading performance of the year. She is absolutely incredible. I’m not a particular CB fan but she blew me away.

I can’t resent Michelle Yeoh for having won given her career, and I’ve seen much worse choices get the nod, but certainly the best leading female performance last year didn’t win last night.

I'll agree that I got a little tired of the Fraser weepfest, but it sounds like he suffered a string of tough events (divorce, chronic pain, etc.) that exacerbated an existing predisposition to depression, it wasn't "just" the groping.

Now that he's won his Oscar I'd love it if he could dry his eyes and start trying to have a little fun.

Couldn't agree more! If you're to forgive my film obsessed side geeking out for a moment, there were some scenes, only snippets, of Tár that *alone* overshadowed MY, and should earn Cate an award. Spectacular movie, and I agree with Scorsese when he said it basically demonstrated a revival of GOOD cinema. a move away from the tired tit we've gotten bored with in recent times. And Cate Blanchett is to thank for that.

I'd be lying if I said that I was a tiny bit disappointed to see one of the masterpieces of the past 10, maybe 20 years, not be recognised formally. But duck it, it moved me, so I'm happy. It did what it was supposed to do for me.

Watching the channel 4 documentary on Paula Yates who I love - I remember hearing a story a few years back from someone reliable that Pete Burns was interviewed by the police as he was the last person who saw her alive as they lived close by… Pete was watching porn on the tv and started having a w**k in front of the copper. Really couldn’t tell you if it was true or not but I know first hand that Pete was quite messed up.

i enjoyed yeoh more but i can absolutely see that blanchett was the stronger performance (if that even makes sense 🤣) - i’m more peeved by jamie lee curtis getting best supporting tbh! if they were rewarding a supporting performance in eeaao then stephanie hsu should have got it.

the oscar’s have never gone four for four (or even two for four most years) in awarding the actual best acting performances of the year though. too much focus of legacy awards, love of biopics, refusal to reward horror, courting good media feedback….

My gf is a massive CB fan, but I can take her or leave her, and honestly a couple of her performances have left me a little cold in the past. But she’s truly sensational in Tár, so many scenes where she knocks it right out of the park, even just some of her body language and expressions are, I agree, so far ahead of anyone else, and the film really caught me off-guard. I’d heard it was good, but it really is a proper film that draws you right into its world. Cinema indeed!

There’s a documentary about Paula Yates? Is it new? *runs to look*

Cate was epic in Elizabeth but Gwyneth got the Oscar that year (we all know why). But glad she won it for Blue Jasmine.

If you are 'flavour of the month', have a good story/ journey and/or you are backed by the producers, you'll get noms. The Oscars has always been a popularity contest.

It's frustrating that Glenn Close has never won it. I was really saddened Emily Watson never got it for 'Breaking the Waves', that was truly an Oscar-worthy performance. Had everything.
