AMAZING! Look at our baby hanging out in that hardcore boys club! I love it so much.

Yes! Well said Amanda

And I especially love her and Mark's 'transformation'.

Just looked up the TIFF submission deadline and it's set for May 1, 2015 (and May 29, 2015 for the late submissions) according to their official website.

I hope Spotlight will submit and get selected. I mean I would be happy with a selection for all the (major) film festivals, but Spotlight seems a good TIFF movie

I want it so bad! I love it when Rachel goes to TIFF.

What a great find April! Thank you so much for sharing, and welcome to the board

Feel free to introduce yourself in our introduction thread.

Article on producer Blye Faust mentions Spotlight:

Quote:

Faust still develops films on the side; she and her producing partner, Nicole Rocklin, are in post-production for the movie “Spotlight,” starring Mark Ruffalo, Michael Keaton, Rachel McAdams, Liev Schreiber and Stanley Tucci. Here, Faust further shares how her worlds continue to overlap — inspiring and influencing one another.

I was browsing Twitter and came upon these tweets (these are older tweets):

Quote:

Does it count as obsessive if I keep checking @IMDb for #spotlightthemovie release date?? First image: Michael Keaton, Mark Ruffalo in Spotlight | News | Screen @RezGlobe @BostonGlobe

Michael Rezendes: @lindseyhoshaw @IMDb @BostonGlobe No, but I don't expect a release until next fall or winter, alas!

Thanks for sharing lis!

I also think it's likely they will release the movie in the fall/winter.

One of the producers of the movie had a reunion during one of the Oscars party. He posted this on instagram:

Indiewire predicts 2016 Oscar nominations for "Spotlight":

Quote:

Best Picture Predictions:

"Brooklyn"
"Carol"
"Demolition"
"The Hateful Eight"
"Joy"
"The Revenant"
"St. James Place"
"Steve Jobs"
"Suffragette"
"Trumbo"

(Alternates: "The Sea of Trees"; "Southpaw"; "Freeheld"; "The Danish Girl"; "Me and Earl and the Dying Girl"; "Ricki and the Flash"; "45 Years"; "Genius"; "Spotlight"; "Macbeth")

Best Supporting Actor Predictions:

Is the fourth time the charm for Bradley Cooper? He's been nominated three times in a row for "Silver Linings Playbook," "American Hustle" and "American Sniper," and is being reunited with his "Playbook" and "Hustle" director David O. Russell and co-star Jennifer Lawrence in "Joy," which sure sounds like a promising proposition to finally take home gold. But two other recent Oscar losers -- Michael Keaton and Steve Carell, also have supporting roles with major potential this year in "Spotlight" and "Freeheld," respectively, and they should all watch out for Tom Hardy, who could very well ride a meaty role in Alejandro González Iñárritu's "The Revenant" to a first nomination.

Prediction:
Bradley Cooper, "Joy"
Tom Hardy, "The Revenant"
Michael Keaton, "Spotlight"
Ken Watanabe, "The Sea of Trees"
Forest Whitaker, "Southpaw"

(Alternates: Mark Rylance, "St. James Place"; Steve Carell, "Freeheld"; Samuel L. Jackson, "The Hateful Eight"; Jesse Eisenberg, "The End of the Tour"; John Goodman, "Trumbo"; Jude Law, "Genius")

For Your Consideration: Yep, It's The 2016 Oscar Predicti | Indiewire

Where the heck is our girl on this list?! I think she has a bigger chance of being nominated for supporting actress in this one, doesn't she? How big a role did Sacha play in this incident/is Rachel going to have a lot of screen time?

My brain is going to explode. Thanks for sharing though, Lis, I'm super pumped for this year.

winterbird · 03-01-2015, 05:13 PM

Thanks for sharing Lis!

Rachel is in the "Honorable Mentions" of Indiewire's 2016 Best Actress Oscar Contenders:

Quote:

Angelina Jolie directs herself for the first time in “By The Sea,” which is worth paying attention to, while Sean Penn directs Charlize Theron in “The Last Face.” Rachel McAdams seems like the biggest female lead in Tom McCarthy’s journalism drama “Spotlight,” while Tilda Swinton is definitely one to watch for Luca Guadagnino’s “A Bigger Splash,” and Maggie Smith is "The Lady In the Van." Finally, if it’s done in time, Lily Collins could make her Oscar debut for co-starring with Warren Beatty in his Howard Hughes movie, while Emma Stone could get a second for Cameron Crowe’s “Aloha,” or Woody Allen’s “Irrational Man.”

I think her role in Spotlight is actually a supporting one..but I'm glad Rachel was mentioned!

amanda s. · 03-05-2015, 04:13 AM
