Friday Movies, Oscars, Sightseeing


The
choice of movies to see tomorrow are: Zero Dark 30, Snitch, Escape from
Planet Earth, A Good Day to Die Hard or DJango Unchained and with the
exception of Planet Earth they are all violent, action R rated films
which are not for me or Allen.  We will be going to the movies tomorrow
but I will not be writing a review as I have already seen the movie and I
am more than willing to sit through this gem again. I am talking about
the film I hope will win the Best Foreign film Oscar, "Amour", and I am
pulling for Emmanuale Riva to win Best Actress, which Allen hasn't seen
it!

For my original review of "Amour" go to https://www.blogster.com/greatmartin/amour-movie-review

Regarding
the Oscars I will be posting a "I Want To Won--Who I Think Will Win"
blog on Saturday and then will do a review of the Oscar show for
www.broadwayshowbiz.com either Sunday or Monday. I am thinking of
writing a blog as I watch the show and commenting on it as we go along.
With the exception of my threatening NEVER to go to the movies again IF
Charlize Theron didn't win for "Monster" or Jennifer Hudson for
"Dreamgirls" I very seldom pick the winners so if you are in a contest
to pick the winners ignore my choices!

And what will I blog about tomorrow since I won't be posting a review? SURPRISE!!!!

Regarding
the pictures above they were all taken around Fort Lauderdale.  Numbers
1 and 2 are something I think may be unique to the area. As in most big
cities we have eye sore electric boxes all around and the city has
decided to cover them with area appropriate pictures. #1 is near the
Arts Center while #2 is near sailboat Bend, one of the oldest
neighborhoods in Fort Laurderdale-- for more about the area go to
https://sailboatbend.net/ and scroll down.

Number
#5 is the water taxi which I think is one of the best ways to see the
city by water with one of the many stops--#3---at the 15th Street
Fisheries Restaurant and docks (#4) at the entrance to our beach. Last,
but certainly not least, #6 was our full moon last month.

Last but certainly not least we went for lunch ar Cafe Vico one of my favorite places--whenever you get here we will go there!!!

I forget who is hosting the Oscars this year - please remind me. I'll never forget the year that Men In Black was nominated for music or something - I really enjoyed the musical nu

Seth MacFarlane is the host--here is a good site for all the info
https://oscar.go.com/ I understand there are 3 big musical tributes--one with all the Bond songs,another with the stars of the "Chicago" movie and another with Streisand
