Brian Cranston is my pick…you never know, Leo might not get it. Hateful 8 for score but I loved Sicario’s music. Actually, the best film for me this year. Room…..hated the way that book ended and kids, well they just irritate me. I tired to like that cute kid and appreciate his performance but… so I tried to love the film but KIDS ugh! I Do however really like Brie Larson. Spotlight, my second favourite. The Big Short, not sure if I liked it or not. No idea for supporting actress. Best actress, Cate Blanchett just bothered me to the point I couldn’t finish the movie so, Brie Larson for me. Supporting actor, Mark Rylance is my favourite but Tom hardy will most likely take the win even though I barely understood anything he said. Christian Bale…maybe because I agree with Sam, he carried that movie. So, I do agree that the Oscar’s are ridiculous but I do try and see all the movies anyway.
Thanks for the great listen.
