Fallout was nominated for Best Drama this year, which went to Shogun. Ella Purnell was not nominated in the actress category, which was an oversight. She’s mesmerizing in Fallout, and I love her in Yellowjackets too, although that show does not need another season. I think if Fallout was on Netflix or HBO it would be getting a lot more attention because it’s just that good. Aaron Moten is phenomenal too, I would like to see him get a nomination. Plus it’s got Walton Goggins in it! He’s excellent in everything and was nominated for best actor in a drama, which went to Hiroyuki Sanada for Shogun.
Ella was very much the silent screen star in a silver sequin draped v-neck Rabanne gown. We’re going to be seeing her in a lot more shows and movies. She’s a lead actress with character actress range.
Dakota Fanning was nominated for supporting actress in a limited series for Ripley. Her category went to Jessica Gunning for Baby Reindeer. Dakota was lovely in a pale peach strapless Armani. I’ve just seen her this month in this ridiculous movie called The Watchers and in the soapy excellent series The Perfect Couple. She’s so dislikable on Perfect Couple that it shows her incredible range. Her fashion is almost always amazing.
Kathy Bates was part of the villains presenting trio last night, along with Antony Starr and Giancarlo Esposito. She joked that she couldn’t get a date after Misery. I’m really sad that she’s retiring, but I’m excited to see her in the Matlock reboot. She elevates everything she’s in. (Watch Disjointed on Netflix if you haven’t see it yet, it’s goofy funny. Aaron Moten is in it too.) Kathy was also in Armani, in a lovely deep blue sequin gown.
Sarah Paulson was in a cool colorblocked blue, white and black Prada gown with a boxy silhouette. I kind of love this, it’s very cool looking. Sarah wasn’t nominated this year and was there as a plus one for her partner, Holland Taylor. Holland was nominated for supporting actress in a drama which went to Elizabeth Debicki for The Crown.
Eiza Gonzalez was in a pale pink Tamara Ralph gown with a wide bustline and feather boa wrap. This looks a bit cheap to me. She’s so pretty and could pull off so many different looks, but I don’t think this is right for her. Eiza was there to support her Netflix show 3 Body Problem, which was nominated for best drama. (That went to Shogun.) I regret watching that show.
