What would be truly amazing is if a short ever gets nominated for Picture, though I wouldn’t put money on it. I may be wrong (someone please correct me if I am), but I don't think a short film is eligible to be nominated for Best Picture because Best Picture honors feature films and a film has to be a certain length to qualify as a feature. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33299-the-annual-academy-awards-general-discussion/page/147/#findComment-5080154

Grant (with Sam Elliott as my second choice). Me too. 😞 Looks like the increased diversity in the Academy is making itself felt. 🙂 EDITED TO ADD: Since it seems as though I miscommunicated what I wanted to say and people took offense, let me clarify: I was rooting for Richard E. Grant to win (hence the sad face emoji), but I am not at all upset that Mr. Ali got the trophy (well, except for the fact that it turned out to be a precursor to GRENN BOOK winning Best Film). What I meant by the "diversity" comment is that in an earlier era Grant would have been a lock for the win, but the increased push for diversity has now brought talented people of color to the fore where before they were ignored. (Hence the smiley face emoji). I in no way meant to insinuate that the diversity push was a bad thing or that Mr. Ali did not deserve his win, and I sincerely apologize for my words giving the impression that I did.

Mountainair February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 I saw Bohemian Rhapsody and loved it! I've never been a huge Queen fan girl- was born in 1984 so they were a bit before my time but I've always loved most of their music. The movie legit brought tears to my eyes and had me going down a huge Freddy Mercury/Queen internet rabbit hole. As a side note, I am a musician. I am part of a flute choir (there are 8 of us). I play both the bass flute and the regular C flute most people are used to seeing and one of our pieces is Bohemian Rhapsody. We play at the medium security prison twice a year and it's so awesome hearing these guys belt out the lyrics while we play! 15 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33299-the-annual-academy-awards-general-discussion/page/147/#findComment-5080196
