This year’s Academy Awards acknowledged present brokenness, even as it offered hope for a better world to come.

This years oscars were so filled with disgusting hypocrisy by presenters and movies filled with sexual exploitation of teens and mocking of Christianity I don’t know how you can find any hope in them
We cannot strive so hard to excuse the culture when it is filled with sin

Hi Katy, I don't read this piece as "excusing" the culture as much as I do finding the good within it, which echoes the gospel in some way. True, because we are all sinners, this good will sometimes be found alongside the "bad." But I don't think that's overwhelmingly the case in the films that Abby discusses.
