The film launched at the Cannes Film Festival, winning the Best Screenplay prize and skyrocketing director C\u00e9line Sciamma to the names of most beloved contemporary directors. However, when the Oscar race began, France instead chose to submit Ladj Ly&#8217;s&nbsp;<em>Les Mis\u00e9rables<\/em>&nbsp;for the International Feature race. Sciamma&#8217;s film still gained feverish fandom on the fall festival circuit and even more critical raves, but ultimately distributor Neon focused its awards campaign energies on fanning the flames of the&nbsp;<em>Parasite<\/em>&nbsp;moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This episode, we talk about the 2019 Cannes Film Festival and Portrait&#8217;s delayed platform release that got abbreviated by COVID. We also discuss Ad\u00e8le Haenel&#8217;s stunning enigmatic performance, the film where No\u00e9mie Merlant falls in love with a circus ride, and the case for Claire Mathon in Best Cinematography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Topics also include Louis Ironson&#8217;s poster&#8217;s disease, 2019 films directed by women, and the 2022 Sight and Sound poll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow Us on Twitter!<br><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Had_Oscar_Buzz\">@Had_Oscar_Buzz<\/a><br>Joe: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/joereid\">@joereid<\/a><br>Chris: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chrisvfeil\">@chrisvfeil<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_1128\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-1048-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_271_Portrait_of_a_Lady_on_Fire_-_Patreon_Selects.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_271_Portrait_of_a_Lady_on_Fire_-_Patreon_Selects.mp3\">https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_271_Portrait_of_a_Lady_on_Fire_-_Patreon_Selects.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_271_Portrait_of_a_Lady_on_Fire_-_Patreon_Selects.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/?powerpress_pinw=1048-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_271_Portrait_of_a_Lady_on_Fire_-_Patreon_Selects.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"THOB_EP_271_Portrait_of_a_Lady_on_Fire_-_Patreon_Selects.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/feed\/podcast\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Patreon Selects episodes continue this week with a pick from Audrey: the beloved 2019 lesbian romance&nbsp;Portrait of a Lady on Fire.
