Here's an interesting one. Writer and Director Todd Field (In the Bedroom and Little Children) will be releasing his third feature film called Tar, starring Cate Blanchett, Noémie Merlant and Mark Strong. I am not sure how to describe the trailer. It is really weird in a good way. Reminded me of Black Swan, which was amazing.
Will the film get any Oscar nominations? Is Cate Blanchett on track for her third Oscar?

I hope not. Cate Ham should be on track for her 0th Oscar, not her third. Her win for The Aviator was outrageous, and her performance in Blue Jasmine is possibly the most overrated female lead performance in cinema history. Wouldn't even make my top 10 leading female performances in a Woody Allen movie, much less some all-time great Oscar winner. I look forward to the culture catching up to reason and seeing how hammy and limited Cate Blanchett is most of the time. Look how she's conducting. Like she's tweaking on drugs or something. No subtlety.

Hope Cate wins, just for above.
I think it can hit Picture, Actress, Screenplay and Score.

No subtlety. As someone who's played in symphony orchestras for a decade under many different conductors, I think she looks pretty damn believable. If you watch footage of professional conductors (or even just attend symphony concerts) you’d probably think some of them look like they’re tweaking on drugs lol. |

I just think Blanchett always goes for surface shit. Yes, every conductor is gesticulating wildly. She doesn't naturalize it at all for me. Blanchett acts like a child, and always has. There's something about her way too willing to embrace the artificial. And I thought she was great in Don't Look Up; very sexy, and startlingly so. I've just seen her in alot of stuff and can't be a fan. |

Hoss yes, but considering I only just found out Strong is even in this, I fear his role is probably pretty small. |

Just Cate and Score, but I can see Picture, Director and Screenplay happening too. Just depends how ‘weird’ it is.

Hoss or Merlant have a really strong shot here - I mean this looks like a trippy TWBB but with sex  - and Hoss - maybe in particular - playing an obviously important role opposite a pretty obvious tour de force is in a great spot. I love Hoss who gave a best of decade level turn in Phoenix, and was entirely different and quite superb in My Little Sister and especially The Audition (photo below) - which has some things in common with Tár - I would not be surprised at all - if Field saw The Audition and drew Blanchett's character as a cross between Hoss's psychology in that and TWBB. Like TWBB this was written FOR Blanchett only, not sure if I expect her to "win" but I expect her to clean up with critics awards and be the frontrunner for much of the Fall.... Picture (maybe), actress, director, screenplay, score, supporting actress for either of them........and er, um.......Production Design

So far I have it in Picture, Director, Actress & Original Screenplay but I can definitely see Hoss getting in too along with something like Sound and maaaybe Original Score since the studio is confident that it (at the very least) meets the Academy's eligibility requirements. Although we're gonna have to wait and see if the Academy itself agrees.

Sickening. Blanchett's artificiality winning 4-5 Oscars will be the death of us all.

Picture, Actress, Original Screenplay for now. I'm not sure if Original Score is eligible, if it is I think Hildur would be nominated too.

I gotta say, now that I've seen this: Hoss over Merlant.
Picture, Actress.........screenplay is iffy but it should get that too........score is marvelous if eligible........Production Design possibly for the range of locations and scope etc. it will not miss Director - it's brilliantly directed - with plenty of visual POV that shape the whole piece........but also this should be nominated for Editing and Sound too.........at several moments in this movie Blanchett hears things that are off and muffled in the distance which may or may not be happening ........and this occurs repeatedly - one such case is NEVER explained - and is integrated into the plot themes - ie "she misses her "cue"" .............. it's a very complex sound design ..........not a lock but it should be........ Also the dazzling nightmare sequences towards the end are inserted like little flashes - and really help with pace and ideas - they build from one scene on top of another .............it's "noticeably" creative editing: It "seems" like an ungainly, and long film (2 hours 40 minutes) but later when you reflect back on it you realize how much information was conveyed and how much the editing helped convey it to you....... |

Just now realizing that if Blanchett wins this year and Bradley Cooper wins next year for Maestro, we'd have back-to-back years with an acting winner playing an orchestra conductor... Here's to representing the world of classical music in cinema!   |

Hope this gets nods for everything, BP, BD, screenplay, Blanchett, Merlant, Cinematography, editing, PD, and score. Don't see anyone topping Blanchett for the win and we'll see if it holds on to the others.

Here's hoping we're past the Nina Hoss phase of things.

- and Hoss - maybe in particular - playing an obviously important role opposite a pretty obvious tour de force is in a great spot.
