In the days leading up to the 2020 Academy Awards, I will be profiling one of the nine Best Picture nominees
Jojo Rabbit
Number of Nominations: 6
Notable Awards so Far:
- BAFTAS – Best Adapted Screenplay
- Toronto International Film Festival – Grolsch People's Choice Award
the Film's Chances
If anything, Jojo Rabbit continues the track record of the winner of the TIFF People's Choice Award going on to get a Best Picture nomination at the Oscars. However, I don't know how well the Oscar voters will react to Taika Waititi's “anti-hate satire,” which gives a comedic look at the events of the holocaust. Other than perhaps a win for the screenplay, this is easily a film that could be shutout this year.
