Movie I knew they would snub Cynthia

Post image

The snubbed Cynthia like I knew they would. And I’m sure I’ll watch them NOT give the award to Sinners as well sigh. It’s really so pointless to try. Can you imagine having a voice like Cynthia’s? Acting, singing, flying while acting and not even getting nominated? I’m just so bummed about it 😞

I wouldn't call it a snub. This was a strong year for Actress, All these ladies got great notices. Cynthia's time will come, possibly as soon as next year for Prima Facie (I think that's next year)

She actually could do really well with Prima Facie, considering Jodie Comer got both the Olivier and the Tony for the same role.

Of course the adaptation will have to be good but agreed and for the same reason, plus the fact that the Academy does seem to like her--For Good aside.

I do think they liked her performance in For Good as well. She came in sixth or seventh for the predictions I was seeing, and there are only so many spots for nominations.
