The latest episode of Academy Watch has Bo and Sam begging Oscar The Genie to shine favourably upon The Invite.
Every so often a film comes along that feels like both a play and also a cinematic experience and The Invite fits the bill in both worlds.
A film based on a film based on a play (Stop saying ‘film’ and ‘play’ in there!), The Invite takes almost exclusively a single location, a recently-renovated apartment, and fills it with about as much comedy and tension and sexuality as one could imagine.
Sure to be an Oscars player, the film has an opportunity to achieve nominations in multiple categories, and if Oscar The Genie is truly capable of granting Oscars-related wishes, at least 1 win!
