Gold Rush
If you ask me, I think it is going to be a very exciting year at the Oscars.
Though there is still no clear forerunner for Best Picture, there are already numerous pictures that have the critics hailing as Oscar-worthy material.
Entertainment Weekly (#850, Nov. 18, 2005) leads the rush with their annual gathering of the possible contenders running for Oscar's top six trophies comes next year.
Allow me to make my bold predictions for the five Best Pics...
Screening on Wednesday, November 23, 2005
