They're giving Somewhere to her. And imagine if she was nominated and WON!

Hasn’t affected anything one bit. Not one entertainment news outlet has even mentioned anything. Seems the Twitter hagglers are alone on this, as usual.

Still not convinced we need a remake. Especially not one with Elgort.

Modern? Nope.

It looks the exact opposite of modern, actually.

It's period look feels forced to me. It doesn't feel natural.

Also, I agree above. The stills look digital. They should've opted for film to give it a more authentically period look.

Indeed, the actual film itself was shot on celluloid film but this person is referring to the promotional stills - those are indeed saturated digital photos. They could have at least emulated vintage film photos. It’s not hard to do in post, even with digital photos.
