What About The Greatness Of The Films And Stars Not Nominated?
No one at the Academy has mentioned the fact that several great actors and filmmakers of color were passed over for nominations this year.
Aside from Sylvester Stallone, the movies Creed (despite Michael B. Jordan winning the Boston Online Film Critics Best Actor Award), Concussion (Will Smith received a Golden Globe nomination) and Beasts of No Nation (Idris Elba was nominated for a Golden Globe, BAFTA, and Screen Actors Guild Award) received no nominations.
Straight Outta Compton did receive a nomination for its screenplay — penned by a team of White writers.
