Will Timothée Chalamet snag Best Actor for “A Complete Unknown” over Adrien Brody for “The Brutalist” at the 97th Academy Awards on Sunday? Will Demi Moore (“The Substance”) take home Best Actress over the likes of Mikey Madison (“Anora”) and Cynthia Erivo (“Wicked”)? What about Arkansas native filmmaker Tara Sheffer, who produced “A Lien,” one of the five movies nominated for Best Live Action Short Film?
Those inclined to get answers to those questions in the company of other local cinephiles might want to check out the Arkansas Cinema Society’s free annual Oscar watch party at Southern Tail Brewing (900 E. 9th St. in Little Rock). Doors open at 5 p.m., and the ceremony starts at 6 p.m. The live televised awards program will be shown on outdoor and indoor screens, with drink specials at the bar and award show snacks. Guests may also participate in a ballot competition with exclusive prizes. You can find more information and make your reservations here.
