Apple TV+’s Girls State and HBO’s Ren Faire scored three nominations apiece to lead all broadcast nominees announced Thursday for the 18th Cinema Eye Honors. The group, which recognizes the year’s outstanding nonfiction and documentary films and TV series, also revealed the 16-film longlist for its annual Audience Choice Prize, won last year by National Geographic’s Bobi Wine: The People’s President, which went on to get nominated for the Documentary Feature Oscar.
The past six winners of the Best Documentary Feature Oscar — this year’s winner 20 Days in Mariupol, Navalny, Summer of Soul, My Octopus Teacher, American Factory and Free Solo — were all Audience Choice Prize nominees. Fans voting will whittle the list to 10 beginning next week, with winners in that and all categories to be announced at an awards ceremony January 9 at the New York Academy of Medicine in East Harlem.

Last year, Bad Bunny's "Un Verano Sin Ti" became the first non-English language album to top the Billboard 200. The Puerto Rican Latin trap and reggaetonero also became the most streamed artist on Spotify for the third consecutive year. Latin music revenue exceeded $1 billion for the first time last year, allowing reggaetón, música Mexicana, and other Latin music genres to reach global success. By any and all metrics, Latin music has officially taken over. But the origins of these genres remain up for debate, particularly when it comes to urbano music and its connections to American hip-hop.
"De La Calle," a new docuseries on Paramount+, explores that and more. For over a decade, award-winning journalist Nick Barili - who was born in Argentina but grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area - has wanted to create a documentary that tells a broader story of Latin music, its rich diversity, its connection to American rap music,...

We might have made some progress when it comes to diverse representation in mainstream films and television, but we still have a very long way to go. This is especially the case when it comes to how the Latinx community is depicted in Hollywood. John Leguizamo recently spoke up about the colorism issue that still very much exists within Latinx communities and how it often impacts casting.
"There's colorism within Latin culture that we have to fix, but there's colorism in Hollywood, too," Leguizamo tells Nick Barili in Barili's new series, "Seen," which is in collaboration with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Like most communities of color, the Latinx community is often treated and portrayed like a monolithic group. We still don't see enough Black Latinx representation in film and television, and rarely do we ever see Indigenous Latinx representation in Hollywood at all. The few times...

John Leguizamo is opening up about his experience climbing the Hollywood ladder, including the modifications he made in his own life to avoid becoming too tan. This as roles for white Latinos continue to dominate in both the big and small screen today, with the industry mostly ignoring those in the community who are mestizo, Black and Asian, among others.
“There’s colorism within Latin culture that we have to fix, but there’s colorism in Hollywood too,” Leguizamo told Nick Barili in his new series Seen in collaboration with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
He continued, “I’ve benefitted from being light skin, and I stayed out of the sun so I could work. I definitely would not go in the sun. For years I was so pasty so I could work. All the Latinos who’ve made it so far, a lot of them were light-skinned.
