Oscars in years. Potentially because no one has seen most of the films nominated. “What’s a CODA”, you ask? Well, probably our newest Best Picture winner.

But that’s the weird new world of cinema, where the best films of the year – at least in the eyes of the Academy – are ones that mostly bombed at the multiplex or were inescapable for a few days on Netflix or Apple TV before vanishing from cultural memory.

In general, though, this year’s Oscars aren’t very objectionable. While the surge in support for the very treacly CODA – about the only hearing member of a deaf family – is bizarre, likewise the love for The Eyes of Tammy Faye’s Jessica Chastain and Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast, there’s a lot to celebrate here.
