Can Timothée Chalamet Break This Oscar Curse?

The New York Timesentertainment

Key Points:

  • Timothée Chalamet delivers a strong performance in "Marty Supreme" and is a leading contender for his third Oscar nomination for best actor.
  • Historically, Oscar voters have been hesitant to award the best-actor Oscar to men under 30, with Adrien Brody being the only man in his 20s to win in this category.
  • While young actresses frequently receive nominations and wins, young male actors face more challenges gaining recognition and respect from older Oscar voters.
  • This trend reflects a broader industry pattern where older male voters tend to favor more seasoned male actors and show less enthusiasm for younger male talent.
