Merchandise is nothing new.

“Everything Everywhere All at Once” has won best feature at the 32nd Gotham Awards.

Roger Deakins attends the National Board of Review Awards gala at Cipriani 42nd Street on Wednesday, Jan. 8, 2020, in New York. The quick succession of the ceremonies, which this year are especially compressed, can give the NBR Awards a discombobulating feeling of deja vu. “I got sober because of this guy,” said Pitt taking the stage. “We’ll see.”The awards belonged equally to Sandler, whose performance in Josh and Benny Safdie’s “Uncut Gems” has been one of the most celebrated of his career.

By now, we shouldn't be too surprised by this cultural contradiction known as Adam Sandler. How does such a man get through life, and what about the people who have to live with him? In his best performances, Sandler offers a dark, bruising exploration of this state of being that actually tells us something. Kevin Garnett is still playing for the Boston Celtics and The Weeknd is a relative newcomer to the music scene. As for Sandler, he deserves the accolades he's getting, again proving that with the right material, he has an uncanny ability to reach deep within us, despite our deep, DEEP annoyance.
