I am usually reading, but at the beginning of each year I set a goal to see all of the Academy-nominated “best pictures.”
I REALLY enjoy this challenge. I see such a diverse selection of movies (and get to have opinions on them). It makes Oscar Night much more fun for me!
RELATED POST: Last year’s nominees & my favorites.
In this post I’m going to name my favorites (there are two!!) and talk a little about all the nine nominated films. I include no spoilers (I want you to enjoy these movies for yourself) only some inside jokes or quotes from the movies.
I also added some “thoughts from Jeremy” which are tidbits from my husband (when applicable); we rarely watch & enjoy the same types of movies, but his reflections are often amusing to me (and admittedly accurate).
Disclaimer: I am not a movie critic; I am just a normal person who watched all of these films!!!
