Winner:
“Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom”: Chadwick Boseman
I strongly believe Chadwick Boseman will be posthumously awarded the Oscar for his stellar performance in “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom”, the last and one of the most evocative and beautiful performances of his career. Boseman has had an impact on the film industry unlike any other actor and there is no one more deserving of the Oscar this year than he is.
