She is right.

The Oscars like all things American have a polished way of ensuring the right people win.

Googling Harvey Weinstein Oscar campaign was enlightening.

She is being a sore loser...yes you have to campaign really hard to win but that's just part of the game. She was all smiley at red carpet, hoping to win big & since she lost now giving these W*F statements.

All award shows have a certain element rigging due to shades of favoritism and nepotism to them. It is human nature to be biased or influenced. A perfectly objective awards show is contrary to human nature. I don't think Oscars are 100% clean, honest and objective. But at the same time I don't think is blatantly corrupt. Barring a few questionable ones most awards are deserving. I wish people didn't get bitter about it.

I'm a huge Leo fan and I wish his fans didn't get so upset at the Oscars over him. He is a very gracious actor who attends all award shows and is happily cheering for co-stars. He is beloved and respected in the industry for his graciousness. He is someone who doesn't have an ounce of bitterness or spite. You do his legacy grave injustice when as a fan you embrace bitterness and spite instead of his graciousness.

u know it hurts they snub him all d tym. he deserved d wins for the avaitor n the departed. he is the only actor who do roles which r not for box office n sgtill they get success. he dont to superhero movies n do such gr8 roles. i adore him just not for acting but of his offscreen personality. but bitterness comes when he deserve the recognition but academy always snub him🥱
