Parkway Theatre And The Oscars

The Parkway Theatre did a GREAT job of putting on a wonderful Oscar show, BRAVO. The food spread was actually pretty  good. The pizza still needs work, but the selection of cheeses, and the fruit plate was excellent. Thank you Parkway.

Out of the 13 Oscar picks that I made I think I got 9 right. Gravity took home the most Oscars,  all for technical skills, such as editing, sound mixing, visual effects, etc. I'm not trying to minimize these accomplishments. Shooting a movie is one thing, but putting it together is a whole other part of the process, a very important part of the process. Half of the time when we watch a movie we are unaware of the sound, the music, the editing or the effects, but what would a movie be without these things? Boring, is what it would be.

In terms of acting I wanted Amy Adams to win, but Cate Blanchett was my second choice. Matthew McConaughey took home best actor, and Jay Leto took home an Oscar for best supporting actor. I got it right with the best supporting actress also, and best picture as well.

There was a woman there who took home two Oscars. One for production design, and one for hair and make up, on two different movies. She now has 13 Oscars. Enough for a football team, and two extras in case of injuries. That's a wow!

Thank you again Parkway Theatre.

That's it.

Life is what happens in between meals.

Peace,

Make Food/Not War
