Thank you for the link, SC.

Very kind and thoughtful.

Actually, I don’t go to the movies as much as I would like.

I have only seen “Hacksaw Ridge” of the ones nominated for best picture, it was excellent.

I’d like to see “Lion”, my hubby watched a special on it on TV and it is based on a very touching true story. He said he’d like to see it too.

“La La Land” looks good and so does “Manchester by the Sea”.

Looking at who is nominated, I really can’t say that I would recognize most of them if they knocked on my front door.

Here are perdictions as to who will win, should win and dark horse that I found interesting:

You’re welcome, LG.

I might go see La La Land. Movie critic guy that’s on F&F regularly gave it 5 stars, which he very rarely gives any movie. I’ve seen the ads on TV and it’s a musical, which I like. We’ll see.

well with the EC done in congress and shots at airport in Fla, this is an OT/insignificant post.

Not sure about LS.. but I go to movies a lot due to not having a life.

This is what I posted on FB this morning

(Oh and BTW saw Lion and Jackie this week. Lion was exceptionally good. Jackie I did not think well cast . Have seen other movies of the Camelots and the actors actually looked a bit like LBJ, RFK, JFK etc..

@@

Movie fans.. Sunday is Golden Globes. My overall favs for the year.. Hacksaw Ridge, Manchester, Fences, Lion, Passengers, Arrival, Hell or High-water, 13 hours - Secret soldiers of Benghazi, Risen, Young Messiah, Eye in the Sky, Legend of Tarzan, Light Between Oceans, Snowden, Magnificent Seven, Girl on a Train, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children , The Accountant, Jack Reacher, Inferno, Dr. Strange, Fantastic Beasts. My favs. Obviously the various award folk might not agree. This represents about 1/5 of the movies I saw this year..
