I'm not sure what I'd pick for Best Film, Three Billboards is up there though, as is Shape of Water (although imo del Toro should mostly just get Best Director as that film was hella well made)
I wouldn't mind Lady Bird winning either really, that was a nice little film
Not many films that could be picked for Best Film that would be a direct result of politics tbh, other than I guess The Post, if they were like choosing it as some kind of weird allusion to Trump being indicted like Nixon was? That's what that film was about, right? I didn't see it

Three Billboards is getting picked on its merits, that film was hugely controversial for daring to show a character deemed 'racist' who gets a bunch of character development and proves his own worth, hardly a classic liberal position right now.
Never seen the film. What was the race of the person deemed racist?
