I'm thrilled with Gary Oldman's win for Darkest Hour. That was a great movie, and he was spectacular in it.

I think the only one I saw was Get Out, also. I thought it was good enough, but not Oscar worthy! I'll have to see the others now. Almost went to see Shape of Water last week, but something came up.

Pretty much ditto on Allison Janey. I actually was unaware the Tonya movie actually out for viewing. Did anyone see it--thinking not.

I was not at all surprised at Janey's win although I was rooting for Laurie Metcalf. I did not see I, Tonya but a friend of mine did and loved it. She thought Allison Janey did a spectacular job. The buzz for months was that she would win.

Allison Janney has won a number of awards for this role including Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild, BAFTA (British). I always enjoyed her in the West Wing.

Loved Frances McDormand's acceptance speech.

We saw The Shape of Water and did not expect to like it. It was my favorite movie. My runner up was The Darkest Hour, so I was glad to see Gary Oldman win. I was surprised that I like Three Billboards as much as I did. Did not watch all of Get Out, just not in the mood for a dark movie, but DH said it was a favorite. I was disappointed in the Dunkirk script, but highly impressed with all the technical stuff in the movie that made all of it seem so real.

I saw more films this past year than in any year in my memory. Four. Which isn't that many but its three to four more than most years for me. All of the ones that I saw ended up winning multiple awards. My favorite from this year was Blade Runner 2049, mostly since the original is one of my all time favorite movies and this long awaited sequel perfectly captured the feeling of the original and extrapolated it beautifully.

I find it somewhat ironic that Dunkirk won awards for Sound Editing and Sound Mixing when my most vivid memory of the movie was that the sound was so painfully loud that it made the movie one of the worst movie experiences of my life.

Three Billboards I mostly enjoyed for the performances, especially Frances McDormand. I had only seen one other "Best Actress" nominated films, but I had no doubt that Frances McDormand would win.

Lastly I was initially pleased to see that "The Shape of Water" and its Director Guillermo del Toro were even nominated, usually movies that are viewed as science fiction are dismissed from consideration out of hand. I expected they might fob it off with some technical award or screenplay award, so I was surprised that it received two of the most prestigious awards.
