The Oscar’s are fast approaching and there’s only one thing on everybody’s mind: I wonder which movies are going to win the Arts Union Science Grants this year.
That’s right! The Arts Union Science Grant Panel has reassembled to award the best in cinema with one of our coveted AUS Grants. In this episode, panel co-chairs Tyler D. R. Vance and Jennie S. Orton gather to discuss the first five of the 10 films nominated for an AUS Grant … oh and they’re also nominated for an Oscar for Best Picture, if you’re into that sort of thing. The discussion is spoiler free, but if you want to be entirely fresh when going into a particular movie, you can find the time stamps below so you can skip to the films you wish to hear about.
If you’d like to leave a review of our findings, feel free to email us at artsunionscience@gmail.com, or join our small-but-might community on Facebook and Instagram.
