Amy Adams On 'Nightbitch' Oscar Potential

Right before Night Bitch premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, IndieWire got Amy Adams into that Oscars frame of mind that the internet has been in since they saw the poster for Night Bitch on May 12th. Yeah, strangest thing. People decided that Amy was finally going to win an Oscar based on a poster. So Amy's been nominated for an Oscar six times, which puts her second in most nominations without winning. Amy was nominated for Best Supporting Actress five times and won some Best Actress. I didn't realize it was only over a span of 13 years. Six nominations in 13 years. That's impressive. So yeah, people thought this was going to be number seven. Then they saw the trailer. Oh, and I'm pretty sure I'm turning into a dog. You're so funny. I wish I saw all those enthusiast faces just go... Don't get me wrong, I love Amy Adams, but yeah, it was just so weird the assuredness that people had based on a poster. Look at my teeth. See how sharp they are? It's a little bit weird. It's not something I think about when I approach a role or when I walk on a red carpet, but I'm always happy if the film connects in a way that increases exposure for the film. Now most of the reaction out of the tiffed mirror is saying that it is better than the trailer. But it doesn't sound like Amy's golden ticket, but it sounds very provocative and it generates conversation. I would love to hear different people's perspectives of their experience watching this film. So the more that we can get it out there to get more eyes on it, the happier I'll be. Good on Amy for doing something bold and unique. I don't think you really want to be chasing an Oscar. I think that's a good way to go about it. I think she's perfectly capable of winning an Oscar one day. I'm sure she will. I actually don't think that she deserved to win for any of the roles that she was nominated for. I think there was always someone better in the category. And I actually think she is someone who has... I don't know if benefited is the right word. But I think her career would have tapered off if she had won after nomination three or four or something like that. I think it's Susan Sarandon. So after she got one nomination, then she got four nominations in five years. And she won in that fifth year for Dead Man Walking. I should have gone to Elizabeth Schubert, I digress. But yeah, Susan had all that momentum and she won. And then, I mean, she still had a career, don't get me wrong. But yeah, she's never even remotely been in the Oscars conversation ever again. So yeah, Amy, you're doing just fine, night bitch. Keep on keeping on. I could crush a walnut with my vagina. But yeah, what are your thoughts on Night Bitch? Did that trailer just totally turn you off? Or are you still intrigued?
