Review:

This movie was really great. Every performance was phenomenal. Chastain deserved her nomination and Spencer deserved her win. Viola Davis should have won for this.

I cried a little, not gonna lie.

Disagree with Chastain. Felt like just another nom for the hell of it. Great movie, and great performances.

agree with You. Davis should have won. I think Chastain should have won supporting though, personally.

Viola Davis was beyond amazing. the movie was pretty schmaltzy, but it was the performances that elevated it.
