My 2021 Oscar Predictions


It sort of felt like the Oscars would never come around this year, I won't lie. While I've enjoyed so many of the films from 2021, I'm also excited to move on from these predictions and get into a new year of film. Obviously, I very much have my fingers crossed for Kenneth Branagh to win anything and everything he's nominated for.
