American movie academics will be banned from attending parties
The American Film Academy has seriously tightened the rules for attending various events preceding the main stage of the "Oscar" voting. This is reported by The Wrap. According to the new regulations, members of the Film Academy are prohibited from participating in "gala dinners, parties and other events not related to the demonstration of candidate movies that may influence decision-making." If this prohibition is ignored for the first time, violators will be suspended from voting for a period of one year, and the second time they will be completely deprived of their membership in the Film Academy. The management of the Film Academy did not specify the criteria for "correct measures", as well as the procedure for recording violations and expulsion of the guilty. Recall that after the scandal that arose due to the absence in the list of nominees for the Oscar 2016 in the acting categories of black applicants, the organization's management announced large-scale reforms. As stated in official press releases, they will be designed to "increase the level of diversity in the board of governors" as well as in "decisions made by movie academics." The proposed reforms caused a mixed reaction among the movie academics themselves. Many expressed fears that art would be sacrificed to the political conjuncture.
