Some things to consider before the 93rd annual Academy Awards ceremony, which will air  Sunday, April 25, 2021 on ABC:
 
If you hadn't noticed, two of the eight films nominated for the 2020 Best Picture Academy Award feature portrayals of a charismatic Black Panther leader targeted by the FBI in the late 1960s. Fred Hampton was the 21-year-old chairman of the Black Panther Party's Illinois chapter when he was killed by authorities during a predawn raid of his Chicago apartment on December 4, 1969.
 
Hampton's final days are recounted in the nominated drama "Judas and the Black Messiah," the story of the FBI's recruitment of William O'Neal, who infiltrated Hampton's group and served as an informer. The film stars Lakeith Stanfield as O'Neal and Daniel Kaluuya (pictured below) as Hampton. Both actors, who appeared together in the 2017 horror hit "Get Out," are nominated in the Best Supporting Actor category.

Hampton is featured in Aaron Sorkin's nominated film "The Trial of the Chicago 7," which re-creates the U.S. government's attempt to prosecute several anti-Vietnam war activists for conspiring to incite riots at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
 
There originally were eight defendants: Black Panther co-founder Bobby Seale was charged, but eventually severed from the case via a mistrial.
 
In Sorkin's film, Hampton (portrayed by Kelvin Harrison Jr., pictured below), attends the trial to provide support for Seale (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II). The trial began 10 weeks before Hampton's death.

The late Chadwick Boseman received awards as Outstanding Actor in a Motion Picture and Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture from the 52nd NAACP Image Awards. A virtual version of the annual ceremony was based in Los Angeles on Saturday night and televised live by CBS, BET and other cable channels.
 
Boseman, who died of colon cancer on August 28, 2020, was honored respectively for his performances in the dramas "Ma Rainey's Black Bottom" and "Da 5 Bloods." His widow, Simone Ledward Boseman, virtually accepted the televised award for Outstanding Actor in a Motion Picture.

"As always, he would give all honor and glory to the most high God," she said in an emotional segment. "He would thank his mom and dad, and he would give honor to the ancestors as we now honor him. Thank you NAACP Image Awards for always giving him his flowers. He was an uncommon artist and an even more uncommon person. But the manner in which we lost him is not uncommon at all. Not in our community."

She urged Black people to  be screened for colon cancer and increase their awareness about the disease. "Black people in this country are 20 percent more likely to be diagnosed with colon cancer and 40 percent more likely to die from it," she said. "The age for routine screening has recently been lowered to 45 so if you are 45 years of age or older, please get screened. Don't put it off any longer, please get screened."

She also received the award for Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series for the final season of ABC's "How to Get Away with Murder."

Some things to consider before the 93rd annual Academy Awards ceremony, which will air Sunday, April 25, 2021 on ABC:
 
This year's winner of the "Missed It By That Much" Award: Writer-director Kemp Powers. He received his first Academy Award nomination this month for adapting the screenplay of his 2013 stage production "One Night in Miami..." 
 
Kemp Powers, Black America's star storyteller | Next Generation of Dreamers | miamitimesonline.com
 
Directed by Regina King, the 2020 film focuses on a fictionalized 1964 "summit meeting" of heavyweight boxer Cassius Clay (Eli Goree), Black Muslim spokesperson Malcolm X (Kingsley Ben-Adir), NFL great Jim Brown (Aldis Hodge) and singer Sam Cooke (Leslie Odom, Jr.).  Most of the story takes place at a Miami hotel when the newly crowned champion Clay is about to announce his conversion to Islam as Cassius X (he later took on the name Muhammad Ali).
 
See the source image
 
Kemp also co-directed and co-wrote the Disney/Pixar musical fantasy "Soul," which is a strong favorite to win the 2020 Oscar for Best Animated Feature. But Kemp wasn't nominated for his work on the film.  If "Soul" wins on Oscar night, statuettes will go to director Pete Docter and producer Dana Murray (pictured below with Kemp).
 
Close but no cigar.

Aw, #LarryMcMurtry. From #Hud to #TheLastPictureShow, #LonesomeDove to #TermsofEndearment and #brokebackmountain, his books and scripts illuminated the lives of Texans like few others'. A great writer.

There really was a boarding school in England for the daughters of Nazi high officials on the eve of World War II. Still an odd setting for an espionage thriller, and #sixminutestomidnight does nothing the least bit intriguing with the eccentric concept.

#Oscars Oscars_TheAcademy_2021.png "hubs" are being set up in London and Paris to help nominees there participate in person
 

This is a good idea. Nominees shouldn't be punished for being concerned about traveling; they are in fact doing what we the public are being urged to do- not travel!

Hubs in Europe and Asia makes more sense.  Much can happen between now and April 25th on the COVID front. We could, in reality, face yet another order of severely reduced open facilities to the public.
