3/1/24 — Open 6-9p. Mask recommended. No open drinks, please.
From November 1979 LIFE magazine, "Barbie Turns 21." A walk through the first 2 decades of a toy line nearing 70 years of age. Now, in 2024, a wonderful & fun Oscar nominated movie. Good luck! A lot has changed over the years, but much has not.
Representante argentino na edição 2023 do Oscar, “Argentina, 1985” é daquelas produções que merecem todos os elogios e adjetivos possíveis, mas talvez sua principal mensagem seja: “nunca mais” é para sempre, lição que países como o Brasil, infelizmente, nunca aprenderam – tanto que vivemos, hoje, o alívio de deixarmos para trás um governo de extrema-direita ao mesmo tempo que essa mesma…
Did you watch the Oscars last night? This is Edith Head, she holds the record of the woman with most Oscars!

Words cannot describe how I felt watching this movie. It takes place in the span of one day and is literally just women talking, yet it felt like the stakes were higher than any action movie that came out this year. It was my first watch of the season and it is a strong contender. I wish they could have brought August with them. Crying Level: 3/5 though it was more like I was shell shocked.
Everything, Everywhere, All at Once: 9.8/10
This movie made me sob. It made me laugh. It made me uncomfortable, but damnit if it didn’t have the best message out of all these movies. Did it top Women Talking for me? YOU CAN’T COMPARE THE TWO, WHOSE IDEA WAS THAT? The ONLY reason is is not getting a solid 10 is because of the butt plug scene and the hot dog fingers in the mouth. Crying Factor 5/5 I was not expecting to bawl my eyes out and want to change my life
The Banshees of Inisherin: 7/10
This movie aggravated me to no end at how bleak everything was. What did we learn from this movie? That if you are depressed, ruining someone else’s life isn’t going to make you feel better. That I want a hook on a stick. And if someone threatened to sever a finger every time I talked to them, I would go out of my way to talk to them every time I saw them. I’m not getting hurt, good luck doing things without fingers mate. Crying Factor: 3/5 Friendship breakups are harder than regular ones. And donkey deaths are harder than regular ones too.
Tar: 4/10
It is important to remind people that I am dumb and some movies are just too psychological for me. Even the internet seems confused about what the purpose of this film was. I was so bored and I don’t trust Cate Blanchet ever. Even in Lord of the Rings. Crying Factor: 0/5 unless you count when I saw how long this movie was
Top Gun Maverick: 8/10
Don’t be fooled, this is a sports movie. I know what Harry Styles meant now when said “it feels like a movie” cause this sure is a movie. It has drama, romance, great music, Miles Teller; Grade A casting right there, damn that was spot on for Goose’s son. I bet if you grew up watching Top Gun (unlike me) this was equivalent to me watching the Force Awakens in theaters. Is it Oscar worthy? No. But is it a good time? Yes. Crying Factor: 2/5, personally it didn’t hit for me but for others it might
Triangle of Sadness: 5/10
This is parasite all over again. You root for no one, everyone sucks, life sucks and the ending is of course open ended which sucks. Stupid film festival movies. The only character I somewhat liked was YaYa because I felt like she respected the grind. Minus points for making me sea sick, minus points for killing children, and minus a thousand because I could see the dead lady breathing. Crying Factor: So much death, yet you have no one to grieve.
All Quiet on the Western Front: 7/10
It’s nice of filmmakers to remind us at least once a year that war sucks. What does this movie have versus others? Daniel Bruhl, and outstanding debut performance by the lead actor, and cinematically amazing. But in a few years will I remember this movie or the greatest beer run ever? I think you know the answer. Crying Factor: 3/5 you don’t love the characters enough to mourn them.
Elvis: 8/10
It took about twenty minutes to remember that this was a Baz Lurhmann film and I was not having drug induced hallucinations. Luckily it calmed down about halfway through. The ending though, with “Unchained Melody” and the real Elvis footage, that is how you end a biopic people! Crying Factor: 2/5 I really love “Unchained Melody”
The Fablemans 7/10
#LET MICHELLE WILLAMS BE IN A HAPPY MARRIAGE #AND GET HER INTO THERAPY. The beginning was just darling when he was a little guy and I kind of wish that the plot focused only on his filmmaking and not the rest of his messed up life. Crying Factor: 1/5, maybe if you can relate to little not Stephen, then you would get misty eyed, but I was just pissed as hell at the mother.
Avatar Way of Water: 7/10
You go through a lot of phases watching this movie. First you are unerved from the CGI. Then you get used to it and you are like okay this is a compelling story. Then you get unnerved because wtf the whales speak sign language? Then you accept that because this movie is literally whack, of course they speak sign language. Then the last 45 minutes you go back and forth between wow this is a good final battle to wait it’s still not over? But one things stay the same the whole 3 Hours: the feeling to scream JAKE YOU DUMBASS at your screen. Crying Factor: 4/5 That scream from Zoe Saldana tears you in two, even if it is coming from a computer generated alien
Last Sunday, I watched the Oscars from beginning to end for the first time ever. This departure from my regular Sunday routine is a mystery because nothing else was different.
I still have the attention span of a blackfly. My dog was on the brink of protest if not walked, and my home was in its typical weekend disarray — towers of dishes in the sink and a laundry pile as daunting as Mt.…
PRE-Oscar rooftop party!!! Feeling so blessed to spend this night celebrating with my closest friends and colleagues! Blessed to work with you and call you friends!! Love u guys!!
Reposted from karondavis For @hollywoodreporter Oscar issue along side a great group [of] Artists. We were asked to create our own Oscar, so I did a bit of a history lesson on the Egyptian God Ptah. The creator of the Oscar claims it is a man wielding a sword to protect all in the academy to me it's obvious where he took his inspiration from. Bloop

In honor of their annual ‘Oscar Issue’, 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗹𝘆𝘄𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗿 ( @hollywoodreporter ) commissioned eleven of today’s leading artists spanning North America, from L.A. to Guadalajara to New York City, to reinterpret the iconic Oscar statuette. The paintings, drawings, sculptures, conceptual photography and performance will be a part of a special Oscar Week exhibition, organized by Michael Slenske ( @eksnels ), at our 𝟳𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗦𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮 𝗕𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗮𝗿𝗱 gallery opening this 𝗦𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟵 from 𝟰-𝟲𝗣𝗠 🏆⭐️🏆
The Hollywood Reporter asked each participating artist to give their own version of an Academy Awards speech, with a behind-the-scenes look at what inspired their glittering creations. As Kenny Scharf ( @kennyscharf ), the Los Angeles native whose art has defined New York City since the ‘80s, succinctly puts it: “I want to thank everyone whoever helped me. Oh, it’s not for me. Byyeeee ...”
