- 12 Years A Slave – Everything I’ve read about this film says it will be stunning, but I missed it when it was in theaters here in Tulsa. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn’t work a trip to the movies into my schedule (well, not if I wanted to sleep anyway).
- August: Osage County – The Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning play was written by fellow Tulsan, Tracy Letts, and it was filmed just up the highway from here. Even if there was no local connection to the film, I would still want to see it. It opened in Tulsa on Friday, so I’ve still got a little time there.
- Nebraska – Another film that I’ve heard (and read) people rave about. It was still playing at the Circle Cinema here in Tulsa last week…let’s see if I can manage it. *gulp*
- Dallas Buyers Club
- American Hustle
- Saving Mr. Banks
- Gravity
All of these movies are ones that are/have been on my list of things to do. So why haven’t I? Hmmm….well, sometimes being a grown-up just sucks….and that’s all I have to say about that. What about you? Have you seen any of these films? Are there any that you would recommend that I haven’t listed? Let me know if I’ve made good choices from the Golden Globes list, and what I need to see before the Academy Awards come along! Tell me about the best/worst dressed people in your opinion too. I missed all the handsome men being all dashing in their tuxedos and the glamorous beautiful women in their designer gowns…help a girl out and tell me who I need to go find pictures of…please?
