OK... I LOOKED, SEARCHED.... didn't find anything from Dotty. But, seriously... tonight's the OSCARS! Where's our Live Thread??
I have a feeling he's not going to be invited back though.
I almost shut it off after 20 minutes but ended up loving ‘Beasts of The Southern Wild’. I’d give it best picture, actor, and actress. Some might think it’s propaganda for the current administration because it’s about a poor, black family. But the fact is that the characters in the movie are ferociously independent and would detest Obama in reality.
I agree with you. Rarely are Christian themes played out like they were in Les Mis— perhaps ignoring the bad rewarding the good is starting to turn things around somewhat.
I’m still mad that the Twilight series didn’t get nominated for anything. :-)
I was enjoying Liam Neeson’s presentation until he made the comment about the film Lincoln dealing with a familiar topic, congressional gridlock. Grrrr.
Amour wins Best Foreign Language Film
Christoph Waltz was very good in the Robert Pattinson/Reese Witherspoon film, Water for Elephants.
I just wish Les Miz was better crafted. It was a sloppy botch of a great stage musical.
Thank you for your review. It’s on my list to see when it comes to town.
Agreed LOL ... it ALMOST kept me away this year... but, we have a LOCAL GIRL nominated... I HAVE to watch!
I agree. Not to get snarky, but honestly, why is this relevant?
The last time we went to the theater was last year to see Act of Valor, that had all those real Navy Seals doing the primary roles. We loved it precisely because it wasn’t phony.
Oh MY! CZJ singing ALL that Jazz! Ok... I can’t type for a bit...
I love the stage production so much I almost didn’t see it. In the end, I’m glad I did. It was encouraging to see people keep their faith in the face of such intense suffering. And especially for Hollywood to actually celebrate people of God rather than ridicule us.
That “SPLAT!” NYC Freepers just heard was Maureen Dowd hitting the pavement after taking a multi-story nose-dive from her apartment ...
Django Unchained
A great film that you SHOULD go see. It is hilarious!
She was amazing. Truly amazing.
LOL!
I know she will probably win but Silver Lining Playbook was the most boring movie out of all those nominated tonight.
A little lull now... as the “celebrate” past Oscar music.... Jennifer Hudson singing some crap from her movie no one watched...
