Best in Show: Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio chat, the Bruiser boys, Césars, HCAs and guilds galore!

Mia , Brian and Gemma hit the last of the Guild awards (SAGs, PGAs, Annies), recap the 48th annual César Awards and tote up the Hollywood Critics’ Association gongs. Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio directors del Toro and Mark Gustafson dive deep into what its like to work with each other, which stop motion animators they’d jump in front of the bus for and whether Cate Blanchett sneaked a bit of Lydia Tár into Spazzatura. Indie Spirit-nominated actor Trevante Rhodes and writer-director Miles Warren drop by for a chat about role models, getting an award from Elijah Wood and their film Bruiser , which is now streaming on Hulu. Plus, our love for Jenny Slate, who we want to hug at the Indie Spirits, a shout out to awards clip editors everywhere, and a celebration of the fresh-faced cinephiles on the awards circuit this season.
