This weekend’s Academy Awards has again come under fire for the lack of diversity in the nominees.  For the second year in a row, every actor nominee is white.  We talk about that and the backlash from actors vowing to boycott the Oscars with Eric Frazier, who wrote an op-ed piece in the Observer about this.  And we hash out the remaining nominees with two of Charlotte’s film critics.

Guests
Eric Frazier - editorial writer for The Charlotte Observer and self-proclaimed movie buff. Charlotte Observer: Lack of diversity in Oscar awards isn’t the problem, it’s a symptom

Matt Brunson - film reviewer, Creative Loafing Charlotte

Sean O'Connell - movie content director for CinemaBlend.com
