for The Father.

Good

I had fears they would give to Boseman just to capitalize on the woke / Black Lives Matter nonsense as well as sympathy towards his death.

Shut up. Some people value merit based acknowledgment.

I’m so happy about this - Hopkins is superb in The Father, one of the most harrowing and riveting performances I have seen in some years. And Anthony Hopkins is certainly a two-Oscar caliber actor, and is unlikely to have many further opportunities. They voted on performance over sentiment.

Hopkins was the best performance of the year, so it's deserved.
