Dan and Lyra have Oscar Fever! Well, Dan does ... Lyra thinks Oscar movies sound boring. Nevertheless, she's chosen Emerald Fennell's Promising Young Woman, a movie that is not boring. Dan, meanwhile, chooses Chloe Zhao's Nomadland. Which will they like better? Will they agree about Promising Young Woman's ending? Which will actually win Best Picture? Plus: Albanian grocery clerks, the difference between actors and real people, and Bo Burnham.
