Film adaptations of musicals have certainly come a long way over the years. These adaptations have a wide range in quality. Some have been Academy Award winners. Some are considered to be among the worst films ever made, and others are simply okay. This year happens to be one of the richest for movie musicals in recent memory, with films such as "In the Heights," "Tick, Tick... Boom!" and "West Side Story" set for release. With that in mind, I thought it would be interesting to look back on some of the biggest movie adaptations of all time and see where they went right and wrong. I'll also be discussing three of this year's newest releases and the expectations for each of them. As someone who loves musical theater and film, I'm excited to look into the past and dive into the future of movie musical adaptations. Let's begin our reflections on the past with a film that has ties to a 2021 release...

It may only be June, but we have our first true-blue Best Picture contender of the year with Warner Bros.' "In the Heights" an adaptation of the Tony Award-winning musical of the same name written by "Hamilton's" Lin-Manuel Miranda and Quiara Alegría Hudes. To say that expectations have been sky-high for "In the Heights" is the understatement of the century; after a year-long delay (due to complications resulting from the ongoing coronavirus pandemic) and a masterfully executed marketing campaign, film fans have been chomping at the bit to get back in a theater and let the wonders of Washington Heights wash all over them, and critics almost universally agree that this is indeed the expertly crafted escapist entertainment that cinemas were made for. With a 96% on Rotten Tomatoes (including a 98% from "Top Critics") and an 85 on Metacritic, "In the Heights" has the critical raves that most awards contenders can only dream of receiving, and though it's premiering so early in the year, these are the reviews that can catapult a film all the way to the finish line no matter what month it releases.

Now that the dust has settled and every outlet has had their chance to take pen to paper over the many failings of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association with their lack of diversity and NBC's justified cancellation of the Awards ceremony, let's pause and take a look at what this will mean for the television shows that would've competed at the 2022 ceremony.

2020 seemed like the perfect time for a streamer to win the coveted Best Picture prize at the Oscars finally. With the global pandemic shutting theaters down and everyone stuck inside for a year, this was the time for Netflix or Amazon to win big. But it was not to be. Netflix blew their chance again by having too many contenders and not focusing on just one or two of them. The contenders they did have last year were also not as good as their previous slates, which included films like "Roma," "Marriage Story," and "The Irishman." If the only good thing for Netflix last year was winning below-the-line categories and satisfying a middle-aged South African man's octopus fetish, then last season was an utter failure.

Since beginning in 1994, the Sheffield DocFest has become the UK's biggest documentary festival and the third-largest in the world. For an avid documentary watcher like myself, the festival is an absolute haven. In 2019, I attended the festival for the first time and tried to watch as many documentaries as possible during my visit. I was really looking forward to returning in 2020, but alas, this was not the case. Luckily, the festival organizers decided to hold the festival virtually, which meant I could still cover it from the comfort and safety of my own home. This year, the festival returns, running from June 4th until June 13th. Attendees have a choice to physically attend the festival or attend the festival virtually.

Cannes is back, baby! If the lineup for the 2021 Festival, announced this morning by festival director Thierry Frémaux, is any indication of its quality, it's back in a massive way. The 63 films that will be premiering at Cannes include a wide array of international titles, many of which were set to premiere at the 2020 festival (which was forced to be canceled because of the pandemic) but which waited on their release dates so that they could be at Cannes in 2021.

It is on. With the May 31 deadline for award submissions now passed, the serious cutthroat politicking for the 73rd Annual Emmy Awards has begun in earnest. Between now and June 28, beleaguered Emmy voters (of which I am one) will have to sift through and review what seems like hundreds of programs to determine which shows and performers will grab those coveted nominations. In above-the-line categories, the Academy has recognized this predicament, and in certain select races, they have expanded the number of potential nominees. For example, in the race for Drama and Comedy Series, the number of slots has grown to eight, as it has with the supporting acting categories. Curiously, the often more competitive lead-acting races have only added only one slot to make it a total of six.

Disney powered through the pandemic by releasing some of their most costly and anticipated projects on their novel streaming service, Disney+, such as "Mulan" and "Soul." However, the live-action origin story of one of animation's most infamous villains, Cruella de Vil, lasted in post-production and on the shelf until the Memorial Day weekend – which coincidentally seems to be the weekend that cinemas have come alive again. "Cruella" proves to be an interesting test for Disney because audiences can either choose to go attend an in-person theatrical screening or pay a premium fee to stream it through Disney+. (This is unlike Warner Brothers, allowing theatrical releases to be seen without extra charge for those who pay for an HBO Max subscription).

The pandemic hit movie theaters hard. No matter where you lived, theaters were shut down at some point in the past 15 months, and the movie-going experience relied on streaming services. And while streaming proved its power as the new dominant force in exhibition, big studio films and their delays proved the theatrical experience still has life yet to live. Although movie theaters were open and available in some form or another for many people for a long while during the pandemic, the Memorial Day weekend was the first real sense of normalcy at the movies. My fully vaccinated self saw "A Quiet Place Part II" this weekend. As much as I thrived in watching artful independent films on Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu throughout the Oscar season, being swallowed up in a sea of people all heading into a movie theater is a pretty sensational feeling. In fact, going back to the movie theater yesterday, in many ways, felt as though I had arrived home after a long hiatus.

It's been said that marriage is a partnership. It is a bond between two people that requires complete trust in order to get through life's various setbacks. The same can be said for the relationship between the director and actor, which often has to contend with power plays, external changes, and differences of opinion. The effort these different partnerships demand is what makes it so damned impressive when people can do both. There have been countless examples of spouses who have worked together as director and actor. They can sometimes result in disaster (Guy Ritchie and Madonna's "Swept Away" comes to mind), but these collaborations yield great results more often than not. "A Quiet Place Part II" is now in theaters, and since real-life couple John Krasinski (co-writer/director) and Emily Blunt (star) are the faces of the franchise, we felt it time to revisit the best director/actor partners who also happened to be married. For clarity's sake, we will not be including directors and actors who were unmarried at the time of their collaboration(s). They must already be spouses, which leaves out notable pairs like James Cameron and Linda Hamilton ("The Terminator" & "T2: Judgement Day") or Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw ("Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom").

This week, “Cruella," the live-action prequel centering on the origin story of the classic Disney villain Cruella de Vil, enters both theaters and the Oscar race in a few below-the-line categories. After the trailer dropped, it was obvious Disney had another contender on its hands for categories such as Costume Design and Production Design. But what are “Cruella’s” chances of victory? A live-action retelling of a classic Disney animation has proven as of late to be a good way of receiving Best Costume or Production Design nominations and sometimes both!

After several years of being in development and missing its first two initial release dates, Terrence Malick's "The Tree of Life" was finally unveiled to the world on 27th May 2011. Malick is an enigma of a director who broke onto the scene in the 1970s with two impactful films, "Badlands" and my personal favorite film, "Days of Heaven." After scoring success with both films, Malick disappeared off the face of the earth. Well, he just went on an extended hiatus after trying to get his project "Q," which was Malick's "2001: A Space Odyssey" The film was meant to be "a history of the cosmos up through the formation of the Earth and the beginnings of life." Eventually, the concept of "Q" would evolve into Malick's most personal film, "The Tree of Life."

The Golden Globes are toast, at least for the 2022 ceremony. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association's vague talk of inclusiveness, spotlighted by the lack of a single black journalist invited to join the group, has been Topic A within the film community the past few weeks, with some in Hollywood hoping that the HFPA gets its act together for 2023, and others simply saying "Good riddance!" Although some journalists and publicists considered the Globes with disdain at the privileged demands made by many in the group's membership, the fact remains that the Globes have had an enormous impact on some films in their campaigns for Academy Award consideration.

Fifteen years ago, "X-Men: The Last Stand" premiered in theaters following its debut at Cannes (yep, that's right). It brought back its fresh-face-turned-movie-star cast and was ready to conclude the first successful cinematic comic book trilogy. But after a few weeks of horrible reviews and fan reactions, it was clear that "X-Men: The Last Stand" was the first failure of the X-Men franchise.

Glenn Close brought the house down in "Sunset Boulevard" on Broadway with the second act power ballad "As If We Never Said Goodbye." She oddly seems to be living out that song now in her film career. Six days after Close lost her eighth Oscar and tied the record for all-time nominations by an actor without a win with Peter O'Toole, Close had a new film, "Four Good Days," open, and yes, once again, she got Oscar buzz. Granted, this will be a long shot for Close since the film opened so early in the year with not much publicity. Still, she did get great reviews from esteemed critics like Richard Roeper of the Chicago Sun-Time and Pete Hammond of Deadline (Hammond even started off his review touting her Oscar chances).

In 2012, I was on a trip to Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida, with my Mom and Granma. We had just eaten dinner and walked around Universal CityWalk Orlando; the two of them wanted to see a show. However, I didn't want to go, choosing instead to see "The Hunger Games" at what was then known as AMC Universal Cineplex. That night, I fell in love with Suzanne Collins' Young Adult dystopian franchise, and it happened during my first experience at an AMC theater ever. I loved the atmosphere and can still remember it vividly, the feel of the seats, the look of the place. When I left, I told my folks all about not only the movie but the theater as well. It made me wish there was an AMC in my hometown, and that wish came true several years later when the theater I grew up going to became an AMC. I was overjoyed and went on to experience some of my most recent favorite moments at the movies there. The last movie I ever saw at the movie theater of my childhood was "Birds of Prey." Not once when I was leaving did I think that would be the case, but then after the COVID-19 pandemic, the theater announced it would not reopen. Suddenly, this place where I had seen everything from "The Adventures Of Pluto Nash" to "Spider-Man: Far rom Home" was permanently gone.

With the recent release of the trailer for the film adaptation of "Dear Evan Hansen," a lot of attention has been focused on the film's star Ben Platt. Platt is reprising his Tony-winning titular role and, as such, has already begun to garner Oscar buzz for his performance. His critically-lauded stage work was arguably the most notable and talked-about performance of the 2016-17 theatrical season. Notably, if Platt were to win the Oscar, he will have achieved the rare EGOT. And, all four of his trophies would be for his work in "Dear Evan Hansenh." Suffice to say, his performance in the film has the potential to be a big deal in the world of awards. But just how common is it for Tony-winning roles to lead to Oscar success? Does history favor Platt's stage-to-screen awards path?

At the 93rd Academy Awards, "Nomadland's" Chloé Zhao made history when she won the Oscar for Best Director, as only the second woman - and the first woman of color - to achieve such a feat - eleven long years after Kathryn Bigelow trounced her competitors in the category for her work on 2009's "The Hurt Locker." While Zhao's win is absolutely worth celebrating, new questions now arise; will we have to wait over a decade for another female recipient of the Best Director Oscar? Thankfully, even though this year's race is chock-full of contenders from male auteurs (Paul Thomas Anderson's "Soggy Bottom," Wes Anderson's "The French Dispatch," Guillermo Del Toro's "Nightmare Alley," Steven Spielberg's "West Side Story," etc.), the ladies are ready to represent as well. Below, we outline ten female filmmakers who could follow in Chloé Zhao's footsteps this awards season to earn a Best Director nomination - and maybe even secure that statue, too.

Often considered the most prestigious film festival globally, the Cannes Film Festival is your one-stop shop for some of the greatest works in international cinema. For the first time since 1968, the festival was canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year's edition has the potential to be one of the best as dozens of projects from the world's greatest filmmakers jockey for the opportunity to be awarded the coveted first place Palme d'Or, which will be decided by a Spike Lee led jury. Twenty films will be selected for the Official Competition, with several others being placed in one of the festival's many sidebar sections. And quite a few unlucky films will have to set their sights somewhere else. Cannes also has its place in the Oscar race. To use a sports analogy, it is the preseason to the fall festivals regular season. Films such as "Pulp Fiction," "The Tree of Life," "Amour" and "Parasite" started their Oscar path at the festival. In this article, I will detail the films that have the potential to premiere at the festival. They are sorted into three categories based on their likelihood, which stemming from a combination of factors that are explained in each summary. The festival will announce the lineup for all sections on June 3rd.

It's not controversial to say that Amy Adams is one of the most respected film actresses working today. She's a household name who can command attention in small indies and huge blockbusters alike. Perhaps the most quantifiable evidence of her veneration is her impressive haul of Oscar nominations. Across the past 15 years, she's managed to scoop up a whopping six nominations. And she's also given plenty of acclaimed performances that didn't land a nomination, such as in "Arrival" and "Enchanted." She shows no sign of slowing down (As evidenced by her performance in this year's "The Woman In The Window" and the upcoming "Dear Evan Hansen"), and at only 46 years old, she'll have plenty of opportunities ahead to rack up even more nominations (and hopefully a win or two). That being said, the curious thing about her six nominations is that, anecdotally, there is no clear consensus amongst Oscar watchers and film fans that she was "robbed" any time that she's lost. I wouldn't personally give her my vote for any of her nominations if I were an Oscar voter. Still, her six nominations represent a vast and varied career, so I thought it would be fun to look back upon and rank her nominations. Spoiler alert: They're all excellent performances!

In 2010, Edgar Wright's film adaptation of the graphic novel series "Scott Pilgrim" by Bryan Lee O'Malley, "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World," was released. The film was a box office bomb, grossing $49.2 million against a budget of $85 million. I personally would discover the film later that year on DVD as a sophomore in high school. The rest, as they say, is history. In my mind, everything about the film was absolutely perfect. From the soundtrack, which featured original songs by Beck, to the visuals, to the cast members, most of whom I hadn't heard of outside of Michael Cera and Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

The most extended Oscar season in most of our lifetimes has finally ended and we're very well, deep into a new film year at this point. But for people who follow the Oscars and award season very closely, the most essential part of any season is not making the final predictions. In my opinion, it is the post-mortem after the fact, reflecting on why things happened, learning from your mistakes, and what you predicted correctly in order to be better at the game the next time around. Below are some of my key takeaways from some of the more surprising developments at the 93rd Academy Awards. 
By Ryan C. Showers
We survived an Oscar season where trying to crack the code in predicting Best Actress was akin to solving a Rubik's cube. Every time you found a solid trail of logic and thought you were getting on the right path, your working theory was undercut by the competing ways to compellingly examine who of the five contenders would rise above for the win. It was a rare year where four of the five nominees essentially had an equal shot at the gold. Therefore, last Sunday, when Best Picture seemed locked and loaded for "Nomadland," Best Actress appeared to be the main event. But the result is less climatic in execution than in the prior discourse and buildup.

It's been more than a week later, and the shock still hasn't worn off. Like many of you, I was floored when Sir Anthony Hopkins upset Chadwick Boseman in the Best Actor category at the 2021 Oscars. I felt terrible for the late Chadwick Boseman, his family, and friends after watching a ceremony that was obviously gearing up for a posthumous Oscar win to Boseman for his role in "Ma Rainey's Black Bottom." I was always under the assumption that someone other than the accountants who tabulate the final Oscar votes would know the decision beforehand. Now, after last Sunday's botched ending, I realize that the ABC executives and producers do not know who will win the awards before the envelopes are opened. Either way, their handling of the ending to the 93rd Academy Awards made a moment that I should've been able to shrug off feel like a punch to the gut. |
