Acting oscars

Alan Arkin LMS. I ADORED his perf.

Octavia Spencer TH. She was the very best that film had to offer (except seeing the great Cicely Tyson)

Miyoshi Umeki Sayonara.
Adorable. Like so many of my elder relatives.

Reese Witherspoon WtL
Her characterization of the late June Carter is spot on. And no lip-syncing.

We all have examples of this n’est ce pas?
Would love to read yours.

I did like Don’t Look Up, though that might have been influenced by me learning great news and being on an extremely good mood when I watched it. I should watch it again but it did leave a good taste in my mouth

Also I fucking loved King Richard

Trail of Chicago 7. Gold derby users last award season drag the fuck out of this movie. I loved it political but in a good way and it just made me feel good and happy like a good social message.

Jojo Rabbit. Masterfully written, directed and performed. Deserves its screenplay win over another Little Women adaptation and another Scorserse’s mobster flick

dragged by some critics and FilmTwitter/Goldderby shenanigans for being stupid. Those who hate it just don’t get it

I agree with this. Reminds me to mention AVATAR and Greenbook as two favorites of mine. I’m long past caring what the smug haters think.

The problem is that GD and Twitter has a problem with feel good crowdpleasers which are not intellectually deep.

Well they need to lighten up. I like being “pleased” and I decide for myself what is “deep”.

Haha..

The Darjeeling Limited is often cited as one of Wes Anderson’s weakest films but honestly it’s one of my favourites of his.

Solidarity with the striking writers. Pay them the wages they are owed for bringing us the content we are all on here because of!

French Exit is 56 on MC but it’s such a great film and Michelle Pfeiffer was breathtaking.

I loved all 4 nominated performances in Silver Linings Playbook.  Absolutely loved that film.

Loved Sam Rockwell in Three Billboards, Laura Dern in Marriage Story and everything about JoJo Rabbit

I also really liked Green Book and I came in fully prepared to hate on it.
