Queen Rooney being really honest and not there for the PR game. Del Toro gave her really nice words about her work. Like he and Cooper were “marveled” with what she was doing. Like she makes reality, not a movie

Mixed to positive reviews so far (70% on Metacritic, 80% on Rotten Tomatoes). Not exactly what we hoped for (it seems Kim Morgan is a weak link, as is style over substance) but not bad either.
Some major Oscar noms are more of a wishful thinking now - a couple of techy ones are likely. Too bad for this because Rooney makes high profile awards potential films like this once in a 4-5 years. We'll probably have to wait some time for the new one.
But, aside from all that, I'm eager to watch this in the theater (it opens in January in my place).

It's hard for me to make predictions with Del Toro because I don't think The Shape of Water is award material and he won it all ... I think his prestige in the industry and the good reviews of Variety, THR and David Fear in Rolling Stone could give him the nomination to BP or director? The critics I trust the most haven't written about it yet. I'm excited by what Cate said in the sense that the movie is CINEMA, you know, ambitious and well crafted stuff .... I miss that in the streaming saturation ... Some compared Rooney to Winona from the 90s in a Burton-like style, which for me is special. |

That young Winona comparison is lovely 👌 Which critics do you trust the most? |

I'd love to see it this way but many viewers (and some critics too) would probably thought of it as gimmick, perhaps overused in the last couple of years. And it would look a bit much like original film. |
