Cinephile: My 2020 Oscar Ballot

The selections below represent who I would vote for if I were a member of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences. These selections are not who I believe will end up taking home an Oscar. In each of my selections, I found something incredibly moving and profound. In each performance, production, and film, my love for this medium and all its power to change a person was cemented. As always, I look forward to hearing your selections and debating the results. Via social media or the comment section below, let me know what your thinking, feeling, and how you’re voting.
