Oscar Wink

"I can't live without you...the thought of it kills me...do you love me?"

I mentioned earlier this week that I had started my annual tradition to go and see as many Oscar nod/wink films on my discriminating list prior to the Academy Awards ceremony scheduled in January.

Todays Oscar nod/wink film was The Reader. The tone of the film was gripping with raw emotion from beginning to end. Yes, it was well written, and yes, superbly acted. The film had some of my favorite flavors running through it too, like hot sex, obsession, and secrets. I can smell an Oscar nomination for Kate Winslet for this film. Bring a box of tissues.

I have the red carpet on my mind,
Neve Black
