Paul Mescal, Rita Moreno and Quentin Tarantino will be honored at the 4th Annual Academy Museum Gala on October 19.

Um why????


I like Paul Mescal but the dude has been in 6 films. Literally.

Edit: I see it’s an award for emerging artists so I stand corrected.

“The Vantage Award, presented to Paul Mescal, honoring an emerging artist or scholar who is helping to contextualize and challenge dominant narratives around cinema.”

Yea i had to read the article first bc it seemed a bit odd lol seeing his name w the other two, but as an emerging artist that makes more sense.

the award they’re giving to Paul is meant to be for emerging artists, and considering he only has like six films and they’re all extremely good – I’d say he deserves it
