"Besides, the Academy Awards are for movies no one has seen or cares about it."

I haven't see and don't care about any of them. Or the Academy Awards either.

In fact, I don't even know who most of those people are.

“Besides, the Academy Awards are for movies no one has seen or cares about it.”

I have posted it here on FreeRepublic before, so here goes again:

Everyone who believes in freedom should see The Kings Speech - It won the best picture award just a few years ago. It’s about Queen Elizabeth’s Father, his speech impediment, and the buildup to WWII -— And his speech therapist. A miraculous film (NOT made by Hollywood!).

Also, there was a wonderful film that won the best film academy award the following year (again NOT a Hollywood film) called ‘The Artist.’ It’s a wonderful tear-jerker. Wonderful!

It’s set in the era of the transition from silent film to ‘talkies.’ A famous actor is/has lost his ability to get good roles - invests EVERYTHING he has on a failed film and someone helps him. The film is black and white (the black part is approved by Al Sharpton!) and filmed in 4:3.

4:3! Can you believe that in this day of CGI that a 4:3 film won best picture?

The Academy, on occasion, selects GREAT films.

Peace.
