kept Hollywood laughing during her Critics Choice Awards monologue on Sunday night, riffing on Hollywood’s wins and losses amid a year of intense attention to social change.
“Between COVID, monkeypox, the ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ press tour, it’s been a lot. I’m just happy to be here tonight supporting the critics’ right to choose,” she continued. “At least someone still has a choice, unless they’re a female critic, then it depends on what state they’re in.”“We love you, Julia,” Handler said. “The word ‘Gaslighting’ was actually Merriam Webster’s word of the year.
Handler then pivoted to a review of the year’s best picture front-runners. “Of course one of the biggest movies this year was ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’,” Handler said. “I don’t want to say that studios treat male and female directors differently, but James Cameron was given a budget of $350 million and Sarah Polley had to film ‘Women Talking’ in a barn.”
Handler continued, shouting out Niecey Nash-Betts for her role in Netflix’s “Dahmer”. “‘Dahmer’ became the third-highest viewed show on Netflix with a combined watch time of 1 billion hours, which apparently is the same amount of time we’re going to have to listen to prince Harry talk about his frostbitten penis,” Handler said.
