Was 'The Favourite' Overlooked At The Oscars For Being Too Female?


The film was up for ten Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director, but snagged just one. Women nominees are down from 2018 for Best Picture, Best Director, Original Screenplay, Editing, Cinematography, Production Design, and Animated Feature. And yet Green Book took the Oscar, not only for that, but for Best Picture. She writes:"Generations of forgetting to zoom into female experience aren’t easily shrugged off, however noble our intentions, and the upshot is that we still don’t expect female texts to have universal things to say. Of course, The Favourite did win one award at the Oscars: Olivia Colman won Best Actress for her stellar portrayal of Queen Anne.
