Sarah Shea and her father, William Shea, are hosting Shea Cinema, a project where they watch and analyze every film nominated for Best Picture. They will discuss the historical context, their personal responses, the importance of understanding these movies, and whether the winners deserved the Oscar. Let's begin Shea Cinema! Hello, and welcome to Shea Cinema, a Best Picture Project. I'm your host, Sarah Shea, and I'm joined by my father, William Shea. Together, we will be watching and exploring every film nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture. We are recreating a project I assigned to my high school film studies students, which includes contextual historical research, discussing our personal responses to each film, what makes them important, why we need to understand these movies in context, and finally, did a winner deserve the Oscar? So, grab your popcorn, pull up a chair, sit back and relax, and let's begin Shea Cinema.
