Ditto, Ditto, Ditto…and OMG !!! P.S. Why didn’t AMPAS have Jodie Foster, Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese reunite on the stage by jointly opening an envelope? Like, maybe, for the predictable and deserving Wes Anderson win. That would’ve been great, as Mr. Scorsese had made a few short...

The older I get, the more I side with George C. Scott. I just can’t take sides any longer. Christopher Nolan against Martin Scorsese? Robert De Niro against Robert Downey Jr? Hoyte van Hoytma against Rodrigo Prieto? Really? Seriously? It’s actually painful to watch this taking place. The...

Once upon a time, I could nail it on who would win Best Song. For decades, I could call it clear. Then, all of a sudden, I couldn’t. Not since Titanic, actually. Has my ear or tastes changed? Have times changed, or has AMPAS? How about everyone here? Is anyone connecting to the last...

Mine was not an attempt to prove or disprove; just a research and refresher of worthy films cited to say that nothing is wasted or altogether lost. True, Tino, not a wave; but hopefully a shifting tide within this given time. 2023. 10 nominations. An excellent jumpstart. I, myself, am...

The Last of the Mohicans (1992) Geronimo: An American Legend (1993) Dance Me Outside (1994) Pocahontas (1995) Smoke Signals (1998) Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner (2001) Skins (2002) The New World (2005) Imprint (2007) Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee (2007) Rumble: The Indians Who Rocked the...

True. Not many roles being written, at all. Hopefully, now, between Killers of the Flower Moon and Miss Gladstone this will open the doors of further interests. The wealth of untold Native American & Canadian stories are as rich as the minerals found within the earth’s soil. I sincerely hope...

For Martin Scorsese to take this project under his wings and to have the Osage story fully realized was greatness, in and of itself. Very courageous and unflinching was Mr. Scorsese for bringing this film to light. Killers of the Flower Moon is one of those films which will slowly grow and...

Thrilled to see Jeffrey Wright finally receiving his first ever Oscar nomination for Best Actor in American Fiction. He’s had the chops for years; as displayed in his portrayal of Martin Luther King Jr. in HBO’s Boycott (2001).

I think it’s great as to just how many films we have at the end of each & every year to discuss, love and defend. At the end of the day, none of the categories, winners or so-called losers matter so much as do the additional films brought to our attentions; giving us all the more to watch and...

Mr. Scorsese the Meryl Streep of directors? The man has had to pull his own teeth to get those 10 Best Director nominations. All were rigorously earned. Streep has 21 nominations and 3 wins. Scorsese has 10 Director nominations and 1 win. Streep is 74. Scorsese is 81. Truly, I feel that...

Theoretically I understand your point. It’s a solid view. Yet, where a nomination is missing in one category does not prevent members from voting in favor of another nomination that does exist elsewhere. They are still free to vote for Killers of the Flower Moon for Best Picture or Best...
