Oscars 2020: New Honest Trailer tears apart best picture nominees
The Irishman, 1917 and Little Women all get a send up in the annual video
A new Honest Trailer for the 2020 Oscars has been released, sending up all the best picture nominees, from The Irishman to Little Women.
Every year, Screen Junkies broadcasts its own mocking verdict on the awards contenders, resurfacing controversies and criticisms that have emerged about each film.
This year’s trailer mocks the three-and-a-half-hour running time of Scorsese’s The Irishman, and the fact that Ford v Ferrari is the ultimate “dad movie”.
It also jokes that Parasite is the wonderful non-English language film that nobody’s watched, and teases 1917 for appearing to be shot in one continuous take and therefore making viewers hesitant to go for a toilet break.
Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio’s hapless Once Upon a Time in Hollywood characters aren’t spared a ribbing, and neither is Greta Gerwig’s Little Women.
