Ryan Gosling had nothing but praise for Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie and their work on “Barbie,” which is extremely fair. The movie arguably wouldn’t be the success it was without Robbie’s lead performance, and Gerwig demonstrated exceptional skill as a director by creating a heightened world with a real heart. That’s to say nothing of the fact that she somehow made a profound, smart, and subversive movie centered around a Barbie doll.
Gosling made sure to discuss this as well in his statement: “Against all odds with nothing but a couple of soulless, scantily clad, and thankfully crotchless dolls, they made us laugh, they broke our hearts, they pushed the culture and they made history. Their work should be recognized along with the other very deserving nominees.”
In the midst of his statement, Gosling made sure to honor those who were nominated for their work on the film. “Having said that,” Gosling continued, “I am so happy for America Ferrera and the other incredible artists who contributed their talents to making this such a groundbreaking film.” Ferrera earned her first-ever Oscar nod for playing Mattel employee Gloria, and the movie also scored nominations for its production and costume design.
