While I thought Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris" was great, to me at least the winner (hands down) should be "Hugo"...what a wonderful film!

I tohught I had already posted this, but apparently not! (I posted it to my blog, but must have forgotten to post here as well.)

The British Are Coming! This website (with good humour, fortunately) is emphasising a three-way battle for the Bradbury award by the British nominees Cornish, Jones and Gaiman:

Agreed. Who does the nominations, and are short subjects included? The Academy Award winning The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore is as good as they get!

And, after following the link and watching it with tears dripping, I was quite happy to see that it did indeed win the Oscar for the animated short.

Aaahhhh.... yes.

Just learned my local theater got updated equipment so we will be seeing Hugo here after all!
