I think 'Homebound' is gonna be a game changer 
! Scorsese's involvement alone should guarantee a win, but what I love about Ghaywan's approach is that he doesn't make it feel like Scorsese took over 
. The fact that he wove in universal themes of migration and dignity is genius 
. What really gets me is how they stuck to the real-life story, no lectures or grand statements just a human story about two guys trying to survive 
. If it wins Best Picture, I'll be over here screaming at the TV "I TOLD YA!"

I'm not convinced by this whole "Cinema Fairy Godmother" thing. What's with Ghaywan going on about how Scorsese was like a magical fairy godmother to him? Like, isn't that just a bit much? Did the director actually have a mentor relationship or is that just some PR spin? 
I'm low-key hyped for 'Homebound' to win at the Oscars 
! Neeraj Ghaywan and Martin Scorsese's collab is giving me LIFE! I mean, can you imagine two cinematic legends working together? It's like a dream come true. The way they talk about the film's themes of migration and dignity is so powerful 
. I loved how Scorsese kept his involvement secret until the end - that's some top-notch Hollywood magic 
. And honestly, I think it's great that Ghaywan gave credit to Melita Toscan Du Plantier for inspiring his work - we should be celebrating more women in cinema

It's like he brought his own magic to the project! I love how Neeraj Ghaywan described him as his "Cinema Fairy Godmother" - that speaks volumes about their collaboration. The fact that they kept Scorsese's involvement a secret until the final edit is so cool. I'm curious to see how Scorsese's presence elevates the film, especially considering its real-life origins. It sounds like it's going to be a powerful story about migration and dignity... fingers crossed for "Homebound" at the Oscars
