El nombre de Will Smith viene sonando con fuerza desde hace meses y el estreno de 'King Richard' en el Festival de Telluride no ha hecho otra cosa que reforzar su condición como uno de los máximos aspirantes a hacerse con el Oscar al mejor actor. Las primeras críticas no solo destacan la interpretación de Smith como Richard Williams (el padre Venus y Serena) sino que también hacen especial hincapié en el trabajo de Aunjanue Ellis (nominada al Emmy por 'Lovecraft Country'). Varios gurús incluso apuntan que la película podría acabar apareciendo en la categoría principal de los Oscar, siguiendo los pasos de otro drama deportivo que acabó valiéndole un Oscar a su protagonista: 'The Blind Side'. Estas son las primeras opiniones que están llegando desde Telluride...
KING RICHARD starts out pretty run of the mill and then keeps getting better. While it’s Will Smith’s show it’s got a killer ensemble from Saniyya Sidney and Demi Singleton as Venus and Serena, a great Jon Bernthal but the film’s secret weapon is Aunjanue Ellis. #KingRichard pic.twitter.com/oXbHi1coI1

Oh another great movie out of Telluride is King Richard. Wow. I know I keep coming up aces here but trust me. The superhero origin story of Venus and Serena Williams. Wonderful. #TellurideFilmFestival

'King Richard' is love. '#KingRichard' is family. The 'Rocky' of tennis movies. The 'Rocky' for every Black kid in the world. Will Smith's finest moments as an actor. Saniyya Sidney is proof the future for Black women in Hollywood is bright. Welcome to the Oscar Race! #Telluride pic.twitter.com/NckEOf0rbl

A movie like KING RICHARD could go saccharine at any moment. But Reinaldo Marcus Green is a serious director and Will Smith channels his spunky energy into the idea of Richard Williams so well that by the end he basically IS him. #TellurideFilmFestival pic.twitter.com/3rWnDeSuVg

#KingRichard is a big-hearted crowd pleaser. Will Smith does a terrific job as the father of tennis legend daughters. Very reminiscent of “The Blind Side.” Smith has a good chance of following in Bullock’s shoes with Oscar. #TellurideFilmFestival #TFF48

King Richard is an inspirational feel-great film that is certainly going to get a ton of awards attention. Will Smith delivers his best performance since the Pursuit of Happiness and don’t be surprised if Aunjanue Ellis gets a supporting actress nomination too. #KingRichard pic.twitter.com/W0J4Qj5YBK

KING RICHARD: Excellent film! A rousing, feel-good crowd-pleaser about the rise of tennis superstars Venus & Serena Williams! Oscar noms for #WillSmith (Lead Actor) & #AunjanueEllis (Supp Actress), maybe Best Pic! Loved from start to finish! @KingRichardFilm #Telluride pic.twitter.com/nvXbtDSA8h

Will Smith and Aunjanue Ellis are the bright spots in a film that needs the real-life events of Venus Williams' tennis career to carry it home. My review of King Richard from the #TellurideFilmFestival https://t.co/NcnC8a9ZZc

I went into KING RICHARD knowing nothing about tennis or the Williams family. But I was completely captivated - by the story, the performances, the heart. Will Smith at his best, Aunjanue Ellis on fire, and breakout turn by young actors Saniyya Sidney and Demi Singleton…

#KingRichard could be bound for major awards recognition, foremost for lead actor Will Smith, who plays the eponymous father of Venus & Serena Williams, but quite possibly extending across the board and up to best picture@ScottFeinberg's analysis: https://t.co/voPDr3YYnp pic.twitter.com/gX0iffds49

Pues otro más...y la categoría empieza a estar realmente complicada, con todo lo que falta!
ResponderEliminarVeo que casi todos los expertos están en Telluride! Bueno, menos Nathaniel Rogers al que vistéis en Venecia
Sigo viendo como frontrunner a Cumbrbatch por The power of the dog, a la que también veo como frontrunner en Película y Dirección.
