    Her story of “he was asked to get bigger names then went through them and said ok can we go to her now” needs to be put out there more, movies / TV need more new people to emerge

    Da'Vine Joy Randolph is such an incredible actress! as horrible as The Idol was, she was the standout of the cast and her performance in The Holdovers deserves the best supporting actress at the Oscars

      The Idol was pretty great if you actually followed the arc. In the end the show (thank to Da'vines character) did a great juxtaposition between good and bad management. The presence of Da'vine showed that you can get great work out of young talent without psychologically manipulating them. She was a great antagonist to Tedros.

    I think Alden Ehrenreich has the most underrated performance of the year in Oppenheimer. On the surface, his character is really just a stand in for the audience almost, just hearing the events, but man does he deliver. Kind of shame he got overshadowed by an equally brilliant RDJ performance

    This was a terrific conversation between Da'Vine Joy Randolph & Alden Ehrenreich. It was a knuckle-cracking good time because these two had a real honest conversation. They listened to each other - they talked honestly about their experiences - they were interested in what each had to say. And the direction was good - the cuts between them worked because the director and the studio camera are also listening to what they're saying. A good studio director catches the look and the thought and can more deeply involve us in the conversation by how they cut back and forth between the people on set. And I love the camera angles. Again we're looking straight on not sideways. This is how to shoot these interviews. Great job all around. Loved it!

    Alden is criminally underrated, he stood out in a stacked cast of Oppenheimer which is insane.
    I've been a fan of his since 2016 after seeing Hail, Caesar! Again, he stands out in such an ensemble cast he's incredible.
    He needs to be kept booked and busy!! Like Da'Vine, they're both amazing

That is why she is in a league of her own and being recognized for her phenomenal acting! And she can SANG, too - she was stellar in "Rustin" as Mahalia Jackson and emanated the essence of the late singer. May God continue to bless, fortify, and propel her career to new heights with her pure soul.
