The Daniels’ alt-reality adventure achieved its smashing success because of its resonant questions how life could be different for any one of us
The film has gripped people because all of us ponder what we could have been, in different lives, different universes, as the result of different life-choices. The movie speaks to the midlife experience: Evelyn’s multiverse madness is the equivalent of waking up in the Dantesque dark woods and questioning what has happened.
At the risk of being ungracious, I must also record mild surprise at the win for Brendan Fraser for his role in The Whale, in prosthetic make up playing the saintly depressed English teacher suffering from extreme weight gain: my feelings here are withfor a stagey, pass-agg and laborious movie but Fraser’s gentle charm definitely won the hearts of Academy voters who love a comeback, and are affected by the actor’s story as someone who has surmounted a crisis in his own life.
So there it is: fans of Todd Field’s psychodrama Tár will now be feeling the way Cate Blanchett’s crazed conductor felt on seeing someone else up on the podium, and everyone involved with The Banshees of Inisherin, The Fabelmans and Living will have experienced every injustice everywhere all at once. The rest will raise a glass to the two Daniels for their amazing victory.
