Why is such a script still nominated for the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay? I doubt the taste of the jury. As a biopic of a character, the plot is too bland and lacks tension to drive the audience into the plot. Then there is the theme of the movie, there is no moving place. No positive energy, no empathy, no touching story, and far from the audience. To be honest, after watching it, I don't even know why the director made such a story, and what enlightenment Jasmine's story has on the real world. But then again, Jessica Chester's performance is still very engaged. In fact, the skiing scene at the beginning was not bad, I thought it would be an inspirational story about Jasmine skiing. In the end, skiing was just an introduction, in order to elicit the story of the poker game. I was thinking about this biopic to show people that if you can use your brain, you can do a career too. In addition, athletes have had a really bad life. If they can't go to the sports field, they can only go to the bar to buy wine - "Jasmine's Game"
