(Remember in Hamilton, when Aaron Burr starts openly campaigning for vice president in the full public eye, asking for votes and shaking hands and flirting with women, and everyone finds it a bit gauche? Hollywood fancies itself still in its pre-Burr stage.)īut the ostensible “disinterest” is total hogwash. (In fact, that’s strictly disallowed by the Academy.) You’ve got to look like you’re “celebrating cinema,” in a pure and disinterested way. You can’t look like you’re asking for votes. Campaigning for an Oscar is a lot like campaigning for public office, with a weird twist: In the movie business, you’re supposed to pretend you’re chill about the whole thing - not here to win, just here for the artistic conversations and interesting people.
