Needless to say last night’s Academy Awards ended in a way that nobody saw coming and it certainly made for a moment than will never be forgotten. However, since it happened at the end I’ll wait until the end of this blog entry to write anymore about it. As a whole I liked but didn’t … More 89th Annual Academy Awards
For each of the big six categories I’m going to begin listing how many of the nominees I’ve seen. I’ll then list who I think will win. I will then rank each of the nominees from least deserving of a win to most deserving of a win. Best Supporting Actress-5/5 Will Win-This one is a … More 2017 Academy Awards-Who Will Win and Who Should Win
On Sunday my husband and I went to see “Fences”. It was the ninth and final Best Picture nominee that I needed to see before the Academy Awards air this coming Sunday night. I love both Denzel Washington and Viola Davis and I had been interested in seeing this film since the first time I … More Fences
This past Thursday night my husband and I went to see “Lion”. I had a moderate interest in the film since December but hadn’t gotten around to seeing it yet. When it was nominated for Best Picture it became a must see for me. After seeing it I have to see that it really is … More Lion
On the second weekend of February my husband and I went to see “La La Land”. When a movie has clear front runner status to be named Best Picture at the Academy Awards it’s easy for it to be a love it or hate it film. For me “La La Land” is neither. I didn’t … More La La Land
The first weekend of February my husband and I went to see “Hidden Figures”. Much like “Hacksaw Ridge”, which I had seen three days before, I probably wouldn’t have seen this film if it hadn’t been nominated for Best Picture which would have been a shame because it is a good movie. Considering the place … More Hidden Figures
On February 1st I enjoyed a half a day off of work and saw “Hacksaw Ridge”. It had been a very, very long time since I had seen movie starring or directed by Mel Gibson. And to be quite honest if “Hacksaw Ridge” wasn’t nominated for Best Picture I probably wouldn’t have seen it despite … More Hacksaw Ridge
Back on New Year’s Day my husband and I went to see “Arrival”. I had wanted to see the film since it came out in November but there had been so much going on during the holidays and so many other films to see during that time that we didn’t get around to it for … More Arrival
Back on New Year’s Eve day my husband and I went to see “Passengers”. Going into the movie we knew the basics of the plot and it seemed interesting but the real reason we saw it was for the two stars. We both adore Academy Award Winner Jennifer Lawrence and the ever so sexy and … More Passengers
I have seen a movie in a theater on Christmas day every year since 1989 and “Steel Magnolias”. Back on Christmas Day of 2016 my mom, my husband and myself saw “Manchester by the Sea”. I absolutely adored Kenneth Longergan’s 2000 film “You Can Count on Me” (not only did it introduce me to the … More Manchester by the Sea
