    The King's Speech (2010)

    This film is a powerful story about friendship, perserverance, and duty.  The King's Speech showed us the incredible talents of both Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush. It is a special movie that may be slower paced than other films from 2010. However, it is worth your time. It feels even more powerful because it is a true story. A wonderful telling of a king who's voice was truly needed during WWII. Looking back, was it deserving of the Best Picture Oscar for 2010?

    All About Eve (1950)

    In this episode of Rewatching Oscar, I dive into one of the greatest films ever made about the theatre, stardom, and the razor-sharp ambition lurking behind the curtain: All About Eve. Released in 1950 and starring the legendary Bette Davis, Anne Baxter, George Sanders, Celeste Holm, and Thelma Ritter, this Oscar-winning classic isn't just a masterclass in acting—it's a biting, witty, and surprisingly timeless take on fame, friendship, manipulation, and power. We’ll explore the film’s iconic performances, the brilliance of Joseph L. Mankiewicz’s script, the unforgettable character arcs of Margo and Eve, and the film’s lasting impact on pop culture. From the razor-sharp dialogue to that haunting, cyclical ending—this episode covers it all. I even spotlight a few of my favourite scenes (with audio clips!) and break down how this film still resonates in today’s celebrity-obsessed world.  Looking back, was it deserving of the Best Picture Oscar for 1950? Listen and find out what film critic Jack Ferdman thinks, and which film he chooses for his Rewatch Oscar of that year. So fasten your seatbelts—it’s going to be a bumpy night on Rewatching Oscar!
