Look, Barbie got the Best Picture nom. And Ryan Gosling and America Ferrera got the nods for Best Supporting Actor and Actress. But how is everyone forgetting the gift of a performance in the center of this amazing movie?! Margot Robbie had to craft a journey from being a shallow, plastic doll to becoming human — with all the pain and joy that entails.

Seriously, it’s one of the great onscreen performances and will be remembered for decades to come. This is a real travesty.
Why?
