If *Wicked* wins PGA tonight, what then?
I’ve been thinking about this for a few days, and as someone who found the film to only be good, I think it has a lot working for it.
Marc Platt is a veteran in the producing community, and we don’t know what kind of behind-the-scenes campaigning has been going on.
The film has been embraced by nearly all the guilds (Costume, Sets, Makeup, Sound, Editing, even Writing) & maybe more so than any other film.
With all the controversy with Emilia Pérez, could the producers really send that film a message by giving the other musical the top prize?
I think it can win this even without the DGA nom, and even without Directing/Writing nods at the Oscars.
Should this happen, how will it implicate the race going forward?
