Nobody resides in a Barbie World over in the UK tonight … ‘trigger “Barbie” simply obtained shut out on the British Academy Movie Awards.
The most important blockbuster of final summer time was up for 5 awards on the present Sunday — Finest Actress, Finest Supporting Actor and Finest Authentic Screenplay together with a pair different design awards.
Sadly, the movie’s creators are strolling away with no single one — going 0-for-5 on the ceremony that is normally a fairly good indication of the best way Academy Awards voters are gonna lean.
“Barbie” is not the one awards season darling that obtained snubbed tonight BTW … Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon” misplaced all 9 of its nominations whereas “Maestro” did not win one in every of its seven awards.
However, the “Barbie” snubs really feel essentially the most vital … given the firestorm that popped off after Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie weren’t nominated for Finest Director and Finest Actress respectively.
Bear in mind … everybody from random X customers to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton chimed in on “Barbie” not receiving these explicit nominations.
Margot later broke her silence on Greta’s snub … much more poignant since GG was left off the nomination listing for the BAFTAs as effectively.
