The Daily's Verdict

This author has a mixed reputation for journalistic standards. It is advisable to fact-check, scrutinize for bias, and check for conflicts of interest before relying on the author's reporting.

Bias

90%

Examples:

  • Emilia Perez, The Substance, Anora, All We Imagine As Light, Caught By The Tides, The Girl With The Needle and The Seed Of The Sacred Fig are among the best-reviewed of this year's lineup and all firmly put women at the heart of their stories.
  • The consensus seems to be building around a few titles. One of the trends to emerge from this year's lineup is the foregrounded position of women within the most buzzed-about films.

Conflicts of Interest

75%

Examples:

  • Andreas spent eight years covering the film industry at Screen International and held posts there including Chief Reporter, News Editor and Deputy Editor.

Contradictions

85%

Examples:

  • All of Us Strangers received a nomination for best film, despite being directed by Greta Gerwig
  • BAFTA snubbed Lily Gladstone for Best Actress.
  • Greta Gerwig and Yorgos Lanthimos were also excluded from the Best Director category.
  • Martin Scorsese was not nominated in the Best Director category.

Deceptions

60%

Examples:

  • It is a true modern masterwork of the kind that outrages with its sheer audacity.
  • So long as there are people who love movies that are actually about things, and think about the past 6,000 years of human civilization, there is an audience for this.
  • The omission of Lily Gladstone for Best Director at BAFTA was presented as a surprise despite her not being nominated last year either.
