February 9
I went with the cousins Nancy and Sharon and Nancy’s friend Michele to see the animated and live action Oscar nominated shorts. Although we all agreed that the selection might not have been as wonderful as previous years, still we were very glad to have seen them.
Animated: Feral (wolfboy); Get a Horse! (Disney); Mr. Hublot (steam punk); Possessions (haiku); Room on the Broom (storybook)
Live Action: Aquel No Era Yo-That Wasn’t Me (child soldier); Avant Que De Tout Perdre-Just Before Losing Everything (escape from home); Helium (tear jerker); Pitääkö Mun Kaikki Hoitaa?-Do I Have to Take Care of Everything? (late to the wedding); The Voorman Problem (trading places)
