The Golden Globes Inspiration Project

Every year I can't wait for awards season. I always watch the ENTIRE Academy Awards, all ten hours (or so it seems) of it. Lately, I've been watching the Golden Globes.


They're not as...official? important?...well I can't think of the word, but they're not to be taken as seriously as the Academy Awards. They show the possible contenders for the Big Show, and you get to see everyone all dressed up.

Claire Danes was one of my favorites this year.

So, as I'm sitting through Ricky Gervais abusing the stars

(he had a new alcoholic beverage each time he walked on stage)


and as I'm watching scenes from the years "best films"

(a still from "The Artist" - one of the nominees I can't wait to see)

I think, "wow as a film graduate I have no idea what's going on in the industry that I studied." I mean I love film, and after four years of studying and writing about and breathing in the best films of the century, I'm just burned out. And even after those four years, I still don't have a clue about what films have been made. But now I'm ready to jump back into the world of film!

So, to start, I thought I would watch all of the Academy Award winners for "Best Picture." So, that's what I'm going to do. And hopefully, I'll keep this up, and write about all of them.

So, "Come on, everybody. Here we go!!!!!!!!!"
