Oscar Nominee Kristen Stewart for "Spencer"

I never was a fan of Krisen Stewart's acting but I watched the trailer for her portrayal of Diana, and she is really exceptional in getting Diana's expressions and moods down so well. I see you can watch it on Hulu.

Has anyone seen it yet?

 

I'd also like to watch The Eyes of Tammy Faye after watching the trailer. I always thought she was complicit in all the fraud going on along with her husband but in the movie, it seems she was not, or wasn't convicted. I will have to read up on it.

 

I think either of these 2 will win though I don't know if I'll watch any of it this year. I will look at the red carpet fashions though online.

We watched Spencer and thought the acting was very good and Oscar worthy.  

 

What I didn't like about the film was how she was portrayed as very mentally unstable person.    About the only part where she seemed happy was at the very end where she took the boys to Britian's version of KFC.

I was disappointed in Tammy Faye. The film is nowhere near Best Picture quality. And yes, in the film despite spending church funds extravagantly for her own personal luxury items, Tammy was not guilty of anything, only Jim.

I would vote for Kristen Stewart.  As far as portraying Diana as unbalanced, I don't think anyone disputes that she was.  That's not to say she didn't have manuy wonderful qualities, too.

The Eyes of Tammy Faye is not nominated for Best Picture. Jessica Chastain is...a very worthy nomination.
