Oscar Nominations Out

Saw The Imitation Game today with WSS.....outstanding. Both Cumberbatch and Knightly excellent as well. The "gay" thing was really not the main thrust of the film at all. It was downplayed, and only became an important factor in the end.....but the story had little to do with the fact that the guy was gay.
WSS said it was gay. WSS isn't gay is he?

my wife and I trade weekends to pick what we will watch - and she picked some good ones
(recently) one was Wild with Reese Witherspoon and last night, Cake with Jennifer Anniston.
They were terrific films!

I have one more best picture to see, whiplash. I will most likely go tomorrow to the first show at Valley View or possibly Kent Plaza.
