The movie Mank is quickly becoming an awards season favorite this year, with six nominations at this year’s Golden Globes. It’s expected to perform similarly at the Oscars, seeing as it’s ostensibly an ode to old Hollywood and checking a lot of the “awards darling” boxes in the process. But this is no Green Book; Mank is such a good movie.

Centered around the life of Herman J. Mankiewicz (Gary Oldman) as he punches out the script for the movie that would become Citizen KaneMank depicts the feverish, exorbitant, and frequently detrimental politics of Hollywood moviemaking in the 1930s as seen through the eyes of one of its most jeering scribes.

The film is gorgeous, heavily stylized, and powerfully executed, with acclaim coming in for director David Fincher, Oldman, and Amanda Seyfried in her portrayal of Marion Davies. It’s nominated at this year’s Golden Globes in the Motion Picture, Actor, Supporting Actress, Director, Screenplay (David Fincher’s late father Jack), and Original Score (Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, in a complete zag from their industrial-heavy scores of Fincher films past).

It’s going to be exciting to see if Mank wins this movie awards season, but you might not remember where to see it – in particular, is it on Netflix?
