Local movie critic predicts 2023 Oscar winners
The 95th Academy Awards will be broadcast on Sunday at 7 p.m. CT with late-night television comedian Jimmy Kimmel serving as host for the third time.
SuperTalk Mississippi's own Tanya Taylor, a certified Critics Choice Awards voter, offered her perspective on the upcoming presentation during Friday's episode of Good Things with Rebecca Turner. Although Taylor believes many of Sunday's winners will be decided by a narrow voting threshold, she expects two films, in particular, to have a big night during the ceremony.
“I think the two big winners Sunday night will be ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once' and ‘Elvis,'” Taylor predicted.
“Everything Everywhere All at Once,” a sci-fi/adventure film, leads the list for most Oscar nominations garnered, including one for best picture. “Elvis,” the film documenting the life of the Mississippi native Elvis Presley, received eight nominations.

SUMMARY: Donna Gladney Floyd from Rankin County, Mississippi, was sentenced to 20 years in the custody of the MDOC after pleading guilty to embezzling $45,000 from the Brandon High School band booster funds. She will serve five years in prison followed by five years of probation, and has been ordered to pay court costs, restitution, and investigative fees. Floyd was scheduled to go to trial in 2024 but pled guilty in April 2024. Her arrest in 2023 followed an investigation prompted by the Rankin County School District and Brandon High School officials.

SUMMARY: Educators across the U.S. are facing challenges with low salaries that are failing to keep up with inflation. The National Education Association reported that on average, teachers make $69,544, with some states paying almost six figures while others pay only about $50,000. Starting teacher salaries are below levels from over a decade ago, and overall, teacher salaries have fallen by 5% due to inflation over the past 10 years. The impact of low salaries on teachers' lives is significant, but it ultimately affects the students. Efforts are being made to increase teacher salaries, but more support is needed from voters, legislators, and districts.
