Film – Movies – Hollywood ~ Me!

Film is a large part of my life and I can admit that I go to the movies at any free time I have (obviously if it’s at least 2 hours).  Just recently I viewed Juno.  I have to say, it was a great pic!  I highly recommend anyone seeing it.  I hope it gets some great awards, because the cast and crew did a fabulous job (especially Ellen Page)!!  With it being award season, and the Oscars coming up, I also want to point out another great film that definately stands out as true art: Sweeney Todd.  This pic has the greatest work of art (in my opinion), probably now my all-time favorite movie, with casting and the crew all doing the best job.  It’s too bad Tim Burton isn’t up for an Oscar, but Johnny Depp and a couple other awards are up, and I hope it wins more than one.  With so many other great movies out, it’s a tough decision to make with winners. 

Award season is great because it recognizes the people who created art, and not a business… which Hollywood has become.  I hope all the right artists are awarded for their great talents!

I love art, and one subject being movies, I hope everyone notices the true art of movie-making and can appreciate it as much as a painting, musical, song, or dance… art is an amazing gift we have and I love expressing it and sharing and viewing others.  It truly is amazing!!

  1. Film is an art form with the ability to affect culture on a mass level. Agree that Juno was a great film – funny yet dealing with serious issues in a light-hearted but not whimsical way.
