The Academy Awards are Sunday, YEAH! Like I said before, I love award shows. "I'm a girl, oops, no 'I'm a fan watcher....'"
I love the Oscars, Golden Globes, Grammy's and the Emmy's. The Tony's are out of my realm of reality. I have never been to a Broadway play. Well, I did go see The Man From LaMancia in San Francisco with Jose Ferrer when I was 16 with my aunt. AND, I forgot my mother and I went to see Phantom of the Opera in Portland. That WAS awsome and I mean AWSOME! But, living on the West Coast, going to NY and seeing a on-or-off Broadway play was not in my world of possibilities.
So, George Clooney for Michael Clayton, Viggo Mortensen for Eastern Promises, Danial Day Lewis for There Will Be Blood, Tommy Lee Jones for In The Valley of Elah BEST ACTOR
The only one the these I've seen is Eastern Promises. OMG that bath-house fight scene??? Viggo was completely naked in this HUGE, to the death, fight scene.
About Me
- DNR87
- S/W/F 57 ~ LOL ~ Conservative Liberal. My son’s principal said: Pragmatic Idealist ~~ What does a CL/PI do with her time? In 1996, with an out-of-control gang problem, and the desire to open a home for teen moms, I founded a nonprofit. I did not retire from the state until 1199, DID TWO JOBS FOR a GOOD 3 YRS. MOSTLY though, I was a single mom of two teen sons. ~ That was 1996 - 2003. Then in 2004 I lost my 25 yr old son to an impaired driver. Losing a son BEST FRIEND is NOT EASY, but I am surviving. I have a couple small dogs *Jack Russell/Minature Dachshund, and I do a lot of mentoring. Teens and young adults looking for help negotiating life struggles. ~ I am a GRANDMA to 3 grandsons, and I am working on Ernies M.O.M. (Memorial Outreach Mission)project. M.O.M. assists victims of DUI crashes.
