“This was very disrespectful.” Once again, Kevin O’Keeffe joins us to talk about the one and only Jessica Chastain for A Most Violent Year. Starring an on-the-rise Oscar Isaac as an emerging entrepreneur in the 1980s trying to avoid crime in dirty business, the film chased Oscar after writer/director J.C. Chandor’s Original Screenplay nomination for his debut Margin Call. But the film’s closest shot at Oscar was the supporting performance by Chastain as Isaac’s wife with a secret or two, which earned her Critics Choice, Independent Spirit, and Golden Globe nominations. Though many predicted Chastain, a surprise nomination went to Laura Dern for Wild, and A Most Violent Year was left out in the Oscar cold. This episode, we talk about the Oscar Isaac performances that deserved Oscar attention, including the year where the likes of he and Tom Hanks missed out on nominations. We also discuss genius cinematographer Bradford Young, the film’s Best Picture win with the National Board of Review, and just how many people actually watched Triple Frontier. Topics also include the value of nail acting and coat acting, this current season of Drag Race All-Stars, and who might have been second place to Patricia Arquette in 2014.
