Roma was the one for me, but I also really loved The Favourite, that final scene just wrapped it up so well I thought

everything about Roma was masterful I thought, it was beautiful. I loved the super long takes with slowly shifting camera. the story that seemed incidental at first slowly gathered heft, and the acting performances that felt remote on a tv screen were amazing to view in a theater

Wow, the Oscar's board of directors was right! No one DOES care about the Oscars anymore.

If BlacKkKlansman can't do better than show here, I guess it really will end up going to Green Book or Roma.

yeah I think those are the two most likely to win. it would be awful if it were Green Book in my opinion
I guess The Favourite could be considered watered-down Lanthimos, but it was accessible and had a great screenplay, stellar acting, beautiful costumes and production design (those Hatfield House interiors were something), and amazing cinematography. It’s my favorite Lanthimos film yet
