Hey all Oscar fans, I’ve decided to put out my early Oscar predictions after the reactions to the Venice, Telluride, and Toronto film festivals. I’ve got the biggest major contenders being Call Me by Your Name, Darkest Hour, Dunkirk, The Shape of Water, and even the latest Toronto People’s Choice award winner, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. Keep in mind with these early predicts that we still don’t know the reactions to Spielberg’s The Post, PTA’s Phantom Thread, and Woody Allen’s Wonder Wheel.
