The glow of privilege even falls upon common prime ministers, with George Arliss, Meryl Streep and Gary Oldman taking top acting honours as Disraeli, Thatcher and Churchill respectively. This year, Joaquin Phoenix took best actor for Joker, playing a supervillain with a range of complexes and compulsions.Д«ut Oscar also loves British royalty, all the way back to Charles LaughtonвЂ™s Henry VIII, with crowned-head awards on the shelves of Helen Mirren ( The Queen), Judi Dench ( Shakespeare in Love), Katharine Hepburn ( The Lion in Winter) and more. Even One Flew Over the CuckooвЂ™s Nest and The Silence of the Lambs, which won several awards (including gongs for both leading actors), are about patients under psychiatric care. Best-picture winners focusing on mental-health issues include The Lost Weekend, Rain Man, Forrest Gump and A Beautiful Mind.

Yet The Shape of Water also features a musical fantasy sequence, inspired by the monochrome designs and dances of the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers film Follow the Fleet (1936). On the surface, it looks like a science-fiction/horror hybrid in the style of Creature from the Black Lagoon вЂ“ the 3D monster-movie from 1954. Take The Shape of Water, which won the Oscar for best picture in 2018. A film can look like one thing from the outside вЂ“ be it a drama, thriller, horror or comedy вЂ“ but delve beneath the surface and youвЂ™ll find a rich cocktail of movie-genre DNA. HereвЂ™s some of our favourite вЂњsecretsвЂќ, culled from those programmesвЂ¦ MKДЇilm genres are slippery, with cross-pollination and mutation the order of the day. Since then weвЂ™ve made three one-off specials, and now the new series, which covers superheroes, British history and spies. I think it was that sense of excitement that spurred the positive response to the first series, which covered romcoms, heist movies, sci-fi, horror and coming-of-age pictures. I met him when I was first working as a film critic in London in the 1980s, and we have a shared interest in narrative вЂ“ in the way movies tell stories.ДЄlong with director Nick Freand Jones, producer John Das and archivist Jane Long, weвЂ™d sit in NewmanвЂ™s London flat brainstorming each programme, and the scripts came out of the notes of those fantastically enjoyable meetings.
