Three acting races are largely decided with one month to go until Oscars Sunday but CODA benefited with a SAG Awards win for Best Cast. The SAG nominees do differ from CCA, BAFTA, and the Oscars but the largest voting body has spoken. While there could still be some acting surprises on Oscar Sunday, I fully expect three winners will repeat on March 27: Actor in a Leading Role: Will Smith, King Richard Actor in…

Solzy at the Movies will be providing live updates as tonight’s 28th SAG Awards take place at the Barker Hanger in Santa Monica.

The first two…
"28th SAG Awards: The Winners (Live Updates)" Solzy at the Movies presents predictions for tonight’s 28th SAG Awards taking place live from the Barker Hanger in Santa Monica.

In the previous year, the guild went 5-for-5 as Parasite went on to win Best Picture. Awards season should not be 15 months long but we’re…

It’s too late for the upcoming Oscars telecast but ABC should give the Academy Awards a Super Bowl-esque pre- and post-show. ABC and the Academy need to stop messing with the main awards telecast. Let all the awards air and allow everyone to have the opportunity to deliver their acceptance speeches without getting cut off by the orchestra. The network isn’t going to get back their old viewership. One reason why is because audiences are…

The Kingsman prequel, The King’s Man, is now available for audiences to take home and watch on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD. The King’s Man takes it all back to World War I to depict the beginning of how Kingsman got its start as a secret service organization.

At long last, the film adaptation of Cyrano is finally opening in wide release after its initial Oscar-qualifying run in December. I had the chance to see the film in New York back at the end of November. It was part of a dedicated CCA press day featuring the cast and crew. At the time, I was thinking I would be running my coverage in mid-January. This is because the plan had been for the…

Trans Rights Are Human Rights and that is reason #1 in why this film critic is not attending or covering this year’s SXSW Film Festival. Transgender rights. Voting rights. Women’s rights. Education. You name it and it’s under attack by the right-wing fascist Republicans in Texas. It’s because of this that I want nothing to do with supporting the Texas state economy. I love SXSW and the city of Austin but no, I cannot in…
