It bugs me this one didn’t get more recognition for that. The performances were all quite good as well.

I don’t even get the criticism here. Rocky and Forrest Gump have made hundreds of millions over the years and got the healthiest budgets to begin with. Taxi Driver and American Psycho had modest budgets and box office returns, and maintain popularity mostly within critics and film geeks like us. I’m confident if you asked around at any gathering of people in roughly the same age group, you’d find far more familiar with FG and Rocky than you will AP and and TD.

TL;DR: Hollywood and viewers have already voted with their dollar.

(TV example, but this is for science) All of Millie Bobby Brown’s acting as El in S1 of Stranger Things. I was very impressed with how well expressed herself in so many scenes, conveying how she felt without a word.
