Oscar 2012: Films That Awaken our Spirit!
22 Feb1st article in our 5 week series Bringing Spirituality back to Hollywood.
By Open Book
It’s quite difficult to put forth new ideas. It takes visionaries and innovators to awaken our spirit. The Independent Spirit Awards were created to support and honor diverse filmmaking in Hollywood. The endless stream of sequels, franchises and retellings of fairytales makes you feel like your seeing double sometimes. Oh, wait! We are! Mirror, Mirror and Snow White & The Huntsman. Hmm! Is this literally a play on good and evil? Are we going to see these films nominated for an Oscar next year? Today blockbuster films geared at mainstream audiences lack heart, soul and depth. With the Oscars this weekend, I thought it would be interesting to take a look at how many Independent Films versus Blockbuster films were nominated for an Oscar last year. So let’s get started.
2012 Golden Globes & HFPA: From a German/European POV.
16 JanLIH welcomes guest author article.
By Sony
When Open Book invited me to write an article about this topic my first thought was, “to confess or not to confess” but then I decided to be honest: I’ve only watched the Golden Globes live once, in 2011 and solely because a special someone was presenting an award. Otherwise the GG‘s were just the final rehearsal for the Oscars in my opinion, and they weren’t worth the trouble to loose a night’s sleep for the show. Before I started my research in German, English and French newspapers I made a short opinion poll among some friends and colleagues. The result was: From 10 people I asked, 8 answered “GG? Let me think a moment, isn’t that the show where they predict the Oscar nominations?” Only two knew about the Hollywood Foreign Press Association or (HFPA) and its connection to the GG‘s. Both complained about the intransparent criteria of; 1). admission to the HFPA as well as 2). the dubious nomination procedure.
