At the Netflix production “Roma” is impossible to miss at this year’s Oscar ceremony. Hollywood fremdelt still with Streaming services. Wrong?
Polemically formulated the question: the mail coach or a railway? Streaming Service or movie experience. It is a fact that The Netflix production “Roma” is not for one, but for ten Oscars nominated. Including best Film and best Director.
The black-and-white Film was shot by Director Alfonso Cuarón, is a quietly told the family story in Mexico city in the 1970s. With the strip of Netflix that sits not in Hollywood but in Silicon Valley, to move, at the same time on his critics.
‘Roma’ has been shown, for example, in a limited number of cinemas in the United States. For three months. However, not exclusively.
