CONGRATULATIONS LEO!
CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE!!
Wow normally I never watch the
Oscars but having
PVR made it a lot more fun.
That said Super Impressed with all the difficult issues that were dealt with tonight from
#TooWhiteOscars
to
Sexual Abuse in the
Catholic Church (
SpotLight- Best Picture) and
Lady Gaga with Vice pres, Biden asking everyone to take a pledge

and Leo's win with a Shout Out for Climate Change, the Indigenous and
everyone whose voice is smothered by big corporations.
Inside Out won an
d that's a great movie about emotions and all the changes that come with puberty.
There's lot of really good movies I would like to see now. But like
Chris Rock asked those people, I had never heard of most of the nominated films.
I am glad
Mad Max, while it won all those awards, didn't win, Best Picture because it
was just too violent and wouldn't send a good message to the world. And
Sam Smith, became the first openly gay man won and Oscar and gave a
shout to the LGBT community.
Talk about Diversity.
I was
impressed by it all...although I saw much more gore and violence than
anticipated, I think I might watch next year. One thing for sure, I am
much more inspired about my creative efforts. When you see such amazing
work its hard not to be.
And for all it's pomp and glory, I was
feeling rather dark and gloomy today but hopefully there is hope for
this world and the films are a big part of it as they are the
messengers.
So thank you to all the artists, and everyone that it takes to make a film.
Well done. Amazing!
