It’s the most wonderful time of the year — awards season! And that means it’s also time for your yearly deep-dive into the Oscar nominees. Join host Larry Mantle (he/him) and the FilmWeek critics at the historic Orpheum Theatre in downtown LA as they hash out the odds for all of the big races. Dress in your red carpet best and get your photo snapped by our photographer — you’ll have a chance to win our inaugural best-dressed contest.
