Surprising considering all the raves for the performances. In a weaker year, I imagine Judy Davis gets in for Supporting Actress.

It's not getting an American release date in 2021, so it won't be Oscar-eligible until 2022, and even then, it's a tough sell for the Academy. But yes, both Davises and Caleb Landry Jones deserve to be in contention regardless of what year they're run.

Good morning, Oscar Buzz. I'm listening.
