Welcome back, Movie Nerds! This week we’re going to continue our road to the Oscars with two more of our favorite Oscar nominated flicks. Andra is going to be discussing the 2018 Best Picture nominee, The Favourite, starring Olivia Coleman (Oscar winning performance), Rachel Weiss, and Emma Stone about Queen Anne and two of her consorts who stopped at nothing to gain power. Shelley is going to be covering the 2008 Best Picture Nominee, There Will Be Blood, starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Paul Dano, and Cairan Hinds about a miner turned oil baron and his unscrupulous climb to the top.
