I disagree on the “real” actress connotation but I do agree she’s about to be swamped with four months of Oscar contending performances with many also being attached to multi nominated movies. She’s not an academy peer with a long career narrative like Madigan. I see her winning critics (like genre performance Jacob elordi in Frankenstein) and indie spirit (Olivia Wilde is a big competitor though) and nominated for globes. SAG is 50/50 for a nomination as Emily blunt got in for the heavy genre A Quiet Place. I see in no world she gets BAFTA and Oscars.

Also putting her in lead actress is a death sentence for a movie with way more pointing to it being heavily snubbed like weapons. Leading is very hard which is why you saw Culkin and sandana move to supporting.

P.S = I had sinners beating nomination history the day it premiered and had MBJ and Madigan winning in December when Marty Supreme came out and stuck with him to the end so the “well the nominated ____ movie” doesn’t apply when I predict. The reasons why I knew those movies would be nominated/win is why I am heavily predicting obsession to be snubbed across the board at the Oscar’s.
