Award Season is about to Kick off this Weekend

So yesterday I caught a matinee showing of the movie Green Book, and I’m so glad I did.  This is the time of year when I notice all the nominated films at the Golden Globes and go into over drive trying to see them all before the award season kicks in.    I am a bit behind this year so I need to get a move on.   Green Book was such a fab film with great performances by Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali.  It made you laugh out loud and tear up which in my book is the sign of an amazing film.  The characters were equally awesome and flawed and you ending up loving them both.  That is all I will say so as not to spoil the movie – but definitely go and see it if you get a chance.

Of course I am absolutely rooting for Rami Malek in Bohemian Rhapsody – what ridiculously huge shoes he had to fill and he pulled it off with flying colors.

So below is the list of the nominees – tell me who you would like to see win.  (We can talk Golden Globes TV tomorrow).
