Rapid Response host Bob Safian digs into the business implications of the Academy Awards with incisive Hollywood observer Franklin Leonard, founder and CEO of the Black List, an independent platform connecting screenwriters with studios. From Oppenheimer’s near-sweep to Killers of the Flower Moon’s donut – and how Barbie arguably won the night without taking home the top prizes, Leonard teases out lessons about creativity, missed opportunities, and where the future of entertainment is moving.If you work in the film, television or theater industry and&nbsp;are interested in finding high quality material, apply for The Black List industry membership today:&nbsp;<a href="https://blcklst.com/register/apply" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://blcklst.com/register/apply</a>Read a transcript of this episode:&nbsp;https://mastersofscale.com Subscribe to the Masters of Scale weekly newsletter:&nbsp;https://mastersofscale.com/subscribeSee Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
