"The King Speech" received 11 Oscar nominations. Truly, a magnificent film. IMO...if you only see one film this should be it!


"True Grit" which some critics felt might be shut out received 9 nominations. I wasn't surprises as this is another excellent film from the Coen's. Wonder how many the 1969 film received?


Some may never have heard of "Winter's Bone". You won't be disappointed. Out on DVD. Recipient of 4 Nods, including Best Picture and Actress.


"The Social Network" received 7 nods, not among my favorites

My choices in Red.

I'm shocked in a bad way that Mila Kunis didn't get nominated. Oh well. Here's hoping Colin Firth takes the award home, as well as Natalie Portman. Those are the only awards I care about.
