If you love movies, you’re in the right place. Welcome back to The Chronicle, the latest episode of The People’s Movies Film Podcast.
This Sunday, March 15th, the 98th Academy Awards, better known as the Academy Awards or Oscars, will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. With some huge contenders in this year’s race, the big question remains — who will take home the biggest prizes in Hollywood?
In this episode, your hosts Paul Devine and Clotilde Chinnici preview the ceremony and discuss the potential winners.
Will Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another sweep the awards? Or could Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, which has earned a historic 16 nominations, dominate the night?
The hosts also look at whether the Oscars will deliver any surprises this year or simply follow the trend set by last month’s BAFTA Film Awards.
In this episode of The Chronicle Podcast, we discuss:
- Our predictions for the 98th Academy Awards
- Whether Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another could sweep the Oscars
- The historic nomination run for Ryan Coogler’s Sinners
- If the BAFTA Film Awards results will influence the Oscars winners
