yesterday, after 83 hey-tell messages, coordinating what movies we were going to see and when, jen finally said "nominations come out tomorrow. let's just wait and see."
and so, the pressure begins to build today. 33 days until the awards show.
i have 13 movies to see to cover everything on the best picture, actor, actress, supporting actor, supporting actress categories.
and i'm going to do it.

my week with marilyn
my week with marilyn
at some point i'm going to have to see a movie by myself - if for nothing else, to say that i've done it
i have no idea what this is, but it sounds like equal parts the fighter and the wrestler, so this goes to the very bottom of the list. i've already seen this movie. twice.

i probably don't need to see this for legit oscar contender business, but for good measure...
A couple of heads up:
ReplyDeleteYES see Hugo with kids. Deeelightful.
I LOVE 'Midnight in Paris', but I love Woody Allen when he is good, and this is him at his BEST. So charming, give the sound a shot. :)
'Tree of Life', I just watched this last weekend, watching it was beautiful/painful (for several reasons) and I enjoyed thinking about it afterward more than watching it. Also, turn the sound up high as pretty much all of the 15 words spoken are whispered.
'Beginners' have fun! Loved it.
If I lived closer to SLC I'd totally ask to see 'My Week with Marilyn' with you. I've been dying to see it.
my week with marilyn is one of my new favorite movies, michelle williams is amazing.
ReplyDeletei love that you see all the movies before the the awards, such a fun tradition. good luck!
'The Artist' is SO amazing! You will love it. And yeah, you should see 'Bridesmaids' because it's crazy-funny.
ReplyDeleteI have only seen one of these movies on the list.
ReplyDeleteBridesmaids...
I think you'll like it. Its funnyish.
pass on Tree of Life - or watch it so I can tell you "I told you so"
ReplyDeleteTinker Tailor Soldier Spy is really slow with zero action...the story is really good, but the movie is hard to watch and difficult to follow. My friend took a nap through the whole thing.
