Robert mentioned how recent films and ambitious projects are making waves in the industry, with directors who are sparking excitement among audiences once again.
“I feel like the stuff that’s going to get nominated for Oscars this year is going to be interesting, and it seems like there’s suddenly a new batch of directors the audience is excited about as well,” Robert said.
