The Oscars Have Disinvited Anatomy Of A Fall’s Canine Star Messi, And Movie Fans Are Hilariously Livid



Awards season campaigning is a notoriously competitive and fickle thing, a calculated mix of schmoozing at industry parties, charming audiences at late-night talk shows and being not too publicly thirsty to take home the gold (sorry, Bradley Cooper). And apparently one Icarian hero flew too close to the sun this year: Messi, the Border Collie breakout of France’s exquisite courtroom drama Anatomy of a Fall, who will reportedly not be attending this year’s Oscars after movie studio reps allegedly complained that he was hogging the spotlight from other nominees. 

Like any big star of an Oscar-nominated picture, Messi—who plays resident pet, Snoop, in the Justine Triet-directed legal thriller, which follows the trial of a writer (played by Sandra Hüller) desperate to prove her innocence in her husband’s death—Messi has made the requisite rounds in the weeks leading up to this Sunday’s Academy Awards, culminating in the seven-year-old pup completely stealing the show at the Oscar’s nominees luncheon last month.
