Those Who Claim Recognition Doesn’t Matter Are Lying: Carey Mulligan

English actor Carey Mulligan believes that performers who claimed the recognition doesn’t matter are lying. Mulligan has been nominated for best actress at this year’s Academy Awards for her role as Felicia Montealegre in Bradley Cooper’s film Maestro. The Hollywood Reporter reported citing The London Times where she said that the nomination is just the coolest thing. She noted that she is especially gutted by Barbie filmmaker Greta Gerwig, who was not nominated for best director at this year’s Oscars, despite widespread public outrage.
‘I’m gutted for Greta because I don’t know what else you can do as a director to get nominated’, Mulligan told the Times. She further added, ‘You make a critically acclaimed film that’s also an incredible global success, and yet you don’t get nominated?’.
Mulligan also appeared in ‘Saltburn,’ which was written and directed by Emerald Fennell and received no Oscar nominations, as per the Hollywood Reporter. ‘I went to the Saltburn premiere in L.A., and I sat with Em, and there were 1,700 people having the greatest experience, so I don’t know’, she said.
‘I think the main takeaway is just how incredibly it was picked up. Initially, people didn’t know how to respond and then suddenly it took over the internet, and now it’s become this enormous phenomenon where you can buy candles called Jacob Elordi’s Bathwater’, she said.
