In their 43rd year, the Razzies deliver some
tough love to movies, screenplays, directors and more with
critical jabs meant to offer a humorous counterpoint to the
Oscars.
"Blonde" received a Razzie nomination for worst picture, two
nominations for worst supporting actors, two for worst screen
couples, as well as nods for worst remake, worst director and
worst screenplay.
Director Andrew Dominik and Netflix already have faced harsh
judgment for what critics called a sexist and cruel depiction of
Monroe, who was portrayed by Ana De Armas.
New York Times Film critic Manohla Dargis wrote: “Given all the
indignities and horrors that Marilyn Monroe endured during her
36 years, it is a relief that she didn’t have to suffer through
the vulgarities of ‘Blonde,’ the latest necrophiliac
entertainment to exploit her.”
The Razzies also did not favor Hanks this season, nominating him
for worst actor as Geppetto in Disney’s “Pinocchio” and worst
supporting actor as Colonel Tom Parker in “Elvis.”
