The Oscar nominees were announced this morning! Not many surprises — Meryl Streep got her 20th nomination, and other previous nominees and winners like Nicole Kidman and Octavia Spencer appeared on the list as well. Annette Bening and Amy Adams were overlooked, a disappointment. But after two years (let’s face it, 89 years) of #oscarssowhite, it was good to see some people of color recognized, especially those behind the camera. “La La Land” tied the record for the most nominations — it is a valentine from Hollywood to itself — but small-budget newcomer “Moonlight” made an impressive showing with eight nominations. I’ll be talking about the nominations with Mack Bates and Betty Jo Tucker on the Movie Addict Headquarters podcast today and will post a link to the show.
