Warner Bros Launches Oscars Campaign ~ Robert Pattinson Best Supporting Actor #Tenet
Warner Bros has officially launched their Oscars “For Your Consideration” campaign for Tenet. Rob has been included for Best Supporting Actor along with Kenneth Branagh and Michael Caine.
The Oscars this year move from their traditional February date to 25 April 2021. Rob is now in consideration as best supporting actor for both Tenet and The Devil All the Time, although according to Variety’s Award Circuit – he is outside of the Top 25 in contention. Rob certainly has some competition with a lot of focus on both Mank and The Trial of the Chicago 7 from Netflix. Nominations will be announced on 15 March 2021. It will definitely be interesting to see how this plays out.
Netflix’s star-studded Gothic thriller featured no shortage of memorable characters and moments, yet none could hold a candle to Robert Pattinson’s peculiar take on the despicable Reverend Preston Teagardin. Teagardin appears late in the film as the new, charismatic pastor the impresses his congregation with his pompous persona while sexually abusing minors on the sly. Pattinson makes bold choices in his approach to the character, including forgoing any Southern dialect coaching to concoct a bizarre accent entirely of his own making. The atypical accent would derail an insidious predator into pure comedy relief in lesser hands, yet Pattinson makes it work for his weirdly charming character. Pattinson continues to pick the unpredictable path in his career, and his appearance in The Devil All the Time shows why that’s a great thing.
What kind of picture is it? Big, certainly: IMAX-scaled, and a hefty 150 minutes even after a visibly ruthless edit. It’s clever, too — yes, the palindromic title has some narrative correlation — albeit in an exhausting, rather joyless way. As second comings go, “Tenet†is like witnessing a Sermon on the Mount preached by a savior who speaks exclusively in dour, drawn-out riddles. Any awe is flattened by follow-up questions.
Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe are simply unmissable in this old-timey horror fixated on the idea of what isolation will do to a person and inspired by remarkable art of centuries past. And under the never-flinching lens of Robert Eggers’ camera, the duo anchor one of North America’s most expressive pieces in a decade to something tangible and at times even relatable. …
Standout releases for me include Antonio Campos’s playfully sinister The Devil All the Time (with its excellent cast of Robert Pattinson, Mia Wasikowska, Tom Holland, Bill Skarsgård and Riley Keough)
Christopher Nolan talks about the relationship between the Protagonist and Neil at around 5.12 – there may be spoilers for those who are yet to watch Tenet. Interesting insight into some of the storyline.
