JVC's Night at the Oscars Film Festival
The 78th Annual Academy Awards will be broadcast on Sunday, March 5th at 8pm. In keeping with a successful JVC tradition, we will be gathering in February to view all five of the Best Picture nominees, watching one movie per week at a local theater. On the off chance that one of the nominees has been released on DVD and is no longer in the theaters, we can have a viewing at a member's home.
Because the award nomina- tions will not be announced until January 31st, leaving us only four weeks to view all five films, the first movie to see will most likely be Brokeback Mountain. Its nomination is almost guaranteed after its Golden Globe win. If we see it at the end of January, just before the nominations are announced, we'll have time to view one film per week.
Other possible nominees include films such as The Constant Gardener, Good Night, and Good Luck, A History of Violence, Match Point, and Walk the Line, all of which were also nominated for Best Picture by the Golden Globes.
On the day of the awards, Erin will be hosting an Oscar party dinner where we can root for favorites and predict winners. The party will be for everyone, even if you are unable or uninterested in seeing the films in the theater or with our group.
Keep an eye on your mailbox and this website for more details about showtimes.
