The Wrap reviews "Frank or Francis" script

The Frank or Francis script is really getting around. Probably no surprise, given its subject matter. :The latest review comes via Steve Pond at The Wrap. It's a mixed review, it has spoilers, and it quotes several lines from the screenplay. Spoiler-free excerpt:

Despite the fact that the Academy has nominated Kaufman three times (plus another nod that went to his alter ego and nonexistent brother Donald Kaufman) and sent him home with a gold statuette for "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" in 2005, his screenplay essentially paints the iconic awards show as an empty pageant designed to celebrate mediocrity.

[...] In truth, the movie's really not about the Oscars or about Hollywood so much as it's about the gluttony and anger that courses through the internet. (Source)
