What was the best movie of 2019?

I think Parasite was the best movie of the year for a few reasons (no spoilers included). First of all, it was a completely original story. It wasn't a remake or a prequel or a sequel, which pretty much everything is these days. Secondly, it was a foreign film that didn't have any big name American actors to draw a crowd. The movie got buzz based on word of mouth alone. The script and the acting were both extremely well done and it also had several plot twists. It was a very unpredictable movie that made watching it very suspenseful and exciting. It also managed to tell a very enthralling story without the use of special effects or CGI. The movie was entertaining purely for the dialogue, story, and character development. It was over 2 hours but did not have a ton of "filler"; it was well paced and never dragged. Finally, I thought it had a very satisfactory ending, which many movies do not. Many films start strong but tend to lose momentum along the way and don't have a solid finish. This movie really had it all and I hope it wins Best Picture!

What was the first sports movie to win an Oscar?

The first sports movie to win any kind of Oscar was 1931's The Champ, which centers on a washed-up, down-on-his-luck boxer hoping to make a comeback. It actually won two Oscars—Best Actor for Wallace Beery, who played the titular champ, and Best Writing (Original Story) for screenwriter Frances Marion. The movie was also nominated for Outstanding Production (the equivalent of the modern "Best Picture" award), and its director, King Vidor, was up for Best Director in the 5th Academy Awards.

Interestingly enough, the first sports movie to win that coveted Best Picture statuette was also about an unfortunate boxer—1976's Rocky.

Answers with Cary Elwes?

What inspired you to write your book As You Wish?

I always get stopped by fans and asked about the making of the film and what it was like, and what Andre was like, and what it was like working with the cast. At the 25th anniversary we were all asked the same thing, but we really didn't get a lot of time to answer, so I thought this was the perfect time to do it. The rest of the cast were so wonderful...they all contributed to the book.

Which actor was the best James Bond?

For me, this is a no-brainer. Sean Connery defined the character with his suave, calm interpretation of the British secret agent. I think the best example for how well he embodied 007 was in Goldfinger (1964), which includes several scenes of Bond basically just hanging out with the titular villain, Auric Goldfinger. His performance is mesmerizing in this particular movie, showcasing Bond's character and personality more than just his gadgets and moves.

While I personally believe Connery was the best actor to play James Bond, I think that the Daniel Craig-era films are definitely some of the best in the series. After being savagely parodied by the Austin Powers franchise, 007 needed to distance himself from the campiness of previous entries. Casino Royale (2006), the first entry to star Craig, did exactly that. This is my absolute favorite film in the James Bond series, with a tight screenplay that focuses on practical, more realistic espionage. While some of Casino Royale's sequels have embraced more of the corniness that audiences have come to expect from the series, I still think the production, writing, and tone of these newer films have cemented 007's place in modern cinema, and I am eagerly awaiting the release of No Time to Die (2020).

What color lipstick did silent movie stars wear?

I know it looks really dark in black and white, like they're wearing the most goth shade of blackish purple, but that's just movie magic. The earliest silent movies were made with a type of film that was sensitive to blue, meaning it showed up very lightly and reds showed up very darkly. The actual lipstick color depended on the actress and the scene, but it was mostly shades of red applied very lightly—and as mentioned, it was still dark on-screen.
