Ugh, a friggin' Oscar podcaster convinced me (via his podcast, not personally, haha) that Jesse Eisenberg would take this for A Real Pain, with very compelling points. So, I went with that in my predictions and was WRONG.

​

I'm sure it was close. I thought the Anora Picture/Director momentum would inspire people to spread the wealth here. Not so much. I'm cool with it - I didn't love A Real Pain so much anyway, haha...
