Would It Kill You to Laugh? Starring Kate Berlin and John Early
Whew. I have seen nearly none of these. Oscar nominations come out next Tuesday, so at least I didn't miss those. I put a note in my calendar app to remind me.
Lot of posthumous nominations here. Lot of cancelled shit too. Not a lot of surprises. I think the biggest snub is probably The Menu but it's being called a horror movie, so maybe not a surprise. I haven't seen it anyway. I guess I'll add a bunch of shit to my TBW list now. I was doing so well keeping it below 1300 too.
