As we all know, the 2023 Oscar Awards gala was filled with many emotions and joys, not only because of the success of Pinocchio by Guillermo del Toro for Best Animated Film, for the triumph of Brendan Fraser for Best Leading Actor and the well-deserved Oscar for Jamie Lee Curtis for being Best Supporting Actress, but also for those who were dissatisfied with the winner for Best Leading Actress, well, for many, Michelle Yeoh did not deserve it.
For thousands of viewers, the triumph of the shortlist for Best Leading Actress should have gone to Cate Blanchett for her unparalleled performance in the film Tar, since, according to Twitter users, the artist’s acting work stood out much more than Michelle’s in the winner for Best Film, Everything everywhere at the same time.
According to the different opinions of users, Yeoh’s award was based on “the new political correctness and forced inclusion”. In addition, they pointed out that the film directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert is overrated, since they think that “it is a nonsense film” and that it was awarded for being “extravagant and inclusive”.
‘Definitely, political correctness won the Oscars. Michelle didn’t deserve to win, this was for Cate Blanchett. Those who praise that mediocre film have not seen the other nominees.’
On the other hand, there were those who were less severe, and although they recognized that Michelle gave a good performance, Cate “gave the best performance of the century” and deserved to have taken the statuette. These arguments are based on the preparation and dedication of the actress, since she not only learned to speak German and play the piano, but also to conduct an orchestra with all the movements and melodies that she herself produced.
In addition to these lessons, it should be noted that this tape was filmed in the midst of the covid-19 pandemic, with Germany practically closed and with little social contact, which represented a mental and physical challenge for Cate.
There is no doubt that giving life to Lydia Tár was quite a challenge for being a dangerous character and out of what was politically correct, as the film’s director, Todd Field, thought at one point.
It is for this reason that the reactions of some moviegoers did not wait, reaffirming that Cate Blanchett is a “queen without a crown.”
