Ahead of Hollywood's biggest night, film critic Richard Crouse shares his predictions for who will take home some hardware at this year's Academy Awards.
Still, film critic Richard Crouse anticipates that the night’s most coveted statue will be presented to “CODA” for best picture. “CODA,” an acronym for child of deaf adult, is a coming-of-age comedy about a teenage girl named Ruby, the only hearing member of a deaf family in Massachusetts.
“I think it's going to be ‘CODA’s’ year to upset that ‘Power of the Dog’ train that seems to have been going all the way through awards season,” Crouse told CTV News Channel on Sunday ahead of the Oscars. “Every year, there's a movie that kind of comes out of nowhere, and all of a sudden, everyone's talking about it the next day, and I think CODA is going to be that movie this year.”
Ahead of Hollywood’s biggest night, Crouse also shared his predictions for who will take home some hardware for the rest of the ceremony’s top categories.
In the category of best actress, Jessica Chastain is favoured for the win, Crouse said. While she started the awards season as an underdog, her performance in “The Eyes of Tammy Faye” quickly picked up steam, he said, and she won best actress at the Screen Actors Guild Awards last month.
