Emily Blunt and John Krasinski arrived together to the Critics’ Choice Awards last night but sat apart – she was with theMary Poppins Returnstable and he was seated with theA Quiet Placeteam. And then she joined theA Quiet Placeteam onstage for their win in the Best Horror/Sci category, holding hands withJohn直到he went up to the microphone to talk about what an unforgettable honour it was for him to win the award for working on the film with the “love of my life”. Blunt-Krasinski Inc, brand strong.
Strong enough to be at the Oscars?Emily’s nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her performance inA Quiet Placeat the SAGs.A Quiet Placeis also a Producers Guild best picture contender, taking the spot that was thought to go toIf Beale Street Could Talkand/orFirst ManandMary Poppins Returnstoo. Their partnership is popular, both within the industry and outside of it. They certainly leaned into that last night.
I’m not sure about his outfit though. I’m not sure if he’s the one to do the white jacket over black shirt and pants thing, no tie, open collar. The shade of that white is off too, especially next to her bright white, beaded dress. Right? If coordination was the goal here, this is not how you get it done. If they were supposed to match, they’ve inadvertently created a clash.
As for Emily’s dress – there seemed to be a white theme happening last night and hers was middle of the road. I mean it’s fine. There’s nothing offensive to it, but I don’t know that it’s anything we’ve never seen before. That said, the Critics’ Choice isn’t as highly trafficked as, say, the Globes so, sure, nobody has to go balls out. And she didn’t. My friend Lorella called it a great Kate Winslet impression. Lorella, as usual, nailed it. I can’t unsee that now.
