[Read our review of “The Favourite,” a critic’s pick.] Weisz, Stone and Colman all received Oscar nominations for “The Favourite,” but Weisz may have the best shot at winning her wide-open category, and she has become the film’s trending topic online. “The Favourite” is nominated in two of those races, for cinematography and editing. I don’t think that’s right at all; cinematography and editing couldn’t be more important. It was lovely that at the Oscar nominees’ luncheon you got to be among people who work in special effects, editing, sound — “egalitarian” is the best way of putting it.
