Green Book

[Laura PourMeADrink]

Wow...saw last night. Amazing film. Didn’t even know that was Viggo until the end.

If you were really into it...great YouTube of cast and director, producer, and others

1. It's taken a lot of heat for being another "white savior" civil rights film.

A la 'Glory', 'Driving Miss Daisy', etc.

2. I loved Mahershala Ali in the latest 8 episode True Detective on HBO

I was captivated by him and Carmen Ejogo in the last True Detective. I had not seen either of them previously and look forward to seeing Green Book, probably when it's on my premium cable.

3. I thought it was more about friendship than race

4. Ali deserved the Oscar

for acting, not supporting.

5. Its a close call, huh...how they decide who the lead

Is and who is supporting? I thought they both were great...
Until I saw A Star is Born. Now I think Bradley Cooper should have won. And Lady Gaga.

6. Cooper maybe.

Certainly over who did win. Gaga for sure although I'm okay with Olivia Colman winning. Didn't think much of The Wife although I'm hoping for great things when Close plays Norma in Sunset Boulevard.

7. You have a problem with Rami Malek winning?

He was amazing. The film may have been flawed but his performance wasn't.
