Oscar season may be over, but there’s still some (understood) hype about the nominated movies and also the ceremony itself. Viola Davis gave an impassioned acceptance speech, Meryl Streep received a standing ovation for her “overrated” career, the Jimmy Kimmel\/Matt Damon feud continued, political talk was able to sneak its way in, and we even got an appearance by the Delorean from Back to the Future.<\/p>\n
LGBT groups are elated that a film following the struggles of a gay black man has been brought to the spotlight and was presented with the Best Motion Picture award — and who could forget the fiasco when “La La Land” was announced as the winner?<\/p>\n
All of Hollywood celebrated the previous year in cinema, but only 2 nights before, French filmmakers, actors, writers, and workers met in the Th\u00e9\u00e2tre du Ch\u00e2telet in Paris to honor their art. Les C\u00e9sar du cin\u00e9ma<\/strong> (the C\u00e9sar Award) is the equivalent of the Oscars and have been awarded yearly since 1796.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Why C\u00e9sar? The award is named after C\u00e9sar Baldaccini, the sculptor of the awarded statue.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n There are 25 awards focusing on categories we’re pretty familiar with: Best Director, Best Adaptation, Best Costume Design… The C\u00e9sar Awards have a few categories they’ve retired: Best Fiction Short, Best Producer, Best Film from the European Union, and Best Poster, to name a few.<\/p>\n Just as with the Oscars, the big award of the night is Best Motion Picture. For the 42nd C\u00e9sar Awards, 7 films were nominated for this category, and today we’re going to take a little peek at all of them.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Et les 7 nominations sont…<\/strong> (and the 7 nominees are)<\/p>\n English title: In Bed with Victoria<\/p>\nVictoria<\/strong><\/h3>\n
