The author discusses Leonardo DiCaprio's less appreciated film, One Battle After Another, which has received 13 Oscar nominations including Best Picture, Best Director for Paul Thomas Anderson and Best Actor for Di Caprio. The film, directed by Adam McKay, was a comedy about a climate change warning and society's apathetic response to it. However, critics were sharply panned by critics for its subject matter and tone, while the film received four Oscar nominations. The author argues that the film's message is still relatable nearly half a decade after its release. Since its release on Netflix, the author notes that while this movie's impact on climate change and society is still relevant, it's worth noting that it relates to the current climate change situation.
