‘Origin’ Social Media Account Calls Out Distributor Neon for Not Inviting Director Ava DuVernay to Oscar Party
The 'Origin' Twitter account has called out the distributor Neon for not inviting the film's director, Ava DuVernay, to its Oscar party.
The event was hosted at the Hollywood Athletic Club by Neon, which touted its Oscar win for “Anatomy of a Fall,” which picked up best original screenplay on Sunday and was also nominated for best picture, director, actress and editing. Neon picked up “Origin” ahead of its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival last September and dated it for an awards-qualifying run in early December before a wider January release. The distributor posted a video to its social media accounts Tuesday announcing that “Origin” is now available for purchase on digital, quoting a review that praises Ellis-Taylor for giving “one of the year’s most stunning performances.”
