The Politics of Who Is 'Owed' an Oscar

I can't say it feels great and I can't say that it makes me happy. It just makes me feel peculiar. It's just a movie, at the end of the day. It's just supposed to be an action movie about a guy trying to get his daughter back. And, what I see every day, it weighs heavy on my heart for the world.
