Preppy Empty Nester

I'm Katie. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am an empty nester meandering through my middle-aged years while entangled in the never-ending process of renovating an antique home on the South Shore of Massachusetts. I love to write about books, movies, TV, celebrities, decorating, and weekend adventures. My favorite writing material is derived from my family: the Mister, my girls, #1 and #2, and my two untrainable, rambunctious pups, Chowdah and Chili.

I was thinking the same thing about the Steve Jobs movies! He is the 2015 version of Vampires. How many different ways can you tell the same story? Thank you for your expert analysis. I will rely on your wisdom as I make my selections in our family's prediction contest. Wish me luck!
ReplyDeleteI love this post because I believe that you are spot on with your predictions. The sentimental favorite always wins, especially if they are aging. And frankly the more "talk" there is about the actors and the movies the more wins they get. I hope you enjoy the show and your weekend.
ReplyDeleteFun love it all.....am behind in my movie watching so cannot comment to extensively however think Christian Bale is a phenomenal actor as is Cate and Kate:) I look forward to all the fun preshow activity as well as seeing who takes home the golden statue. Enjoy your weekend:)
ReplyDeleteI'm going to a party tonight where we all contribute a small gift for a big grand prize basket, awarded to the person who predicts the most winners! -HAHAHA! Freudian slip - when I typed "winner" I first accidentally typed "sinner!" Hollywood? Never!
ReplyDeleteAnyway . . . (I just amuse myself so much . . .)
Thanks for the tips. If I win, I'll think of you while I enjoy all the goodies!
Hello dear Katie
ReplyDeleteI hope Brooklyn wins for you, what a marvellous movie. The only other one I have actually seen is the Danish Girl, and I loved Alicia Vikander too... she would be very worthy of winning, but being English I have to support Kate ( love her )
Im sure you are spot on with all your predictions
Looking forward to the glamour and gowns as much as anything :)
Happy Oscars Evening & love to you

I so want to see Brooklyn...the only movie that I have seen that is nominated for an award is the Martian...can't wait to see if your picks win. Have a great rest of the weekend.
ReplyDeleteIt's always fun to see who wins...looking forward to it!
ReplyDeleteNow I've got to see The Danish Girl. I'm SO glad that Mark Rylance won best supporting actor. He was fabulous!!
ReplyDeletePRETTY GOOD!I couldn't believe MAD MAX won so MUCH!I haven't seen ANY of these MOVIES but I know someone from INSTAGRAM who knows ALICIA!I AGREE with YOU...........her speech and her gown were PERFECT!She will be a STAR!!!!!!!!VERY POISED!
ReplyDeleteTHANKS for the run down!
Dearest Preppy Empty Nester - no award season fashion review this year? Where is your esteemed entertainment correspondent, Dude?! I hope she hasn’t fled to ET or Extra. Anywho, your take on award show success and failure (cough, cough . . . Heidi Klum) was missed. :-)
