About a week ago, the long-awaited “The Post” from Steven Spielberg, Meryl Streep, and Tom Hanks screened for critics and pundits. Due to the strict social media and review embargos set in place, the broader punditry and general audience members didn’t learn much about the film for over a week after the screening. It led to much speculation on both sides of the anticipation spectrum: the pro-Spielberg/Streep/Hanks crowd insisted patience would lead to a late-breaking success story, while anti-Oscar bait voices instilled doubt while pointing out ways in which it could fail. In award show circles, this was the perfect item to create such a storm of division and discussion. With not many having seen the film and those who had not been able to talk about it, there was not much to do besides speculating on the rushed project about the ever-timely political and feminist topics, brought to life by the crème de la crème talents of the entertainment industry.
