Finally - the ninth and final movie on the Best Pics list:
Nebraska. It was a slow piece, lots of pauses and long stares. your typical Oscar fare.
Bruce Dern was pretty good, but in watching him do the talk show rounds, I felt it was just an exaggerated version of himself.
Will Forte? I've seen that earnest character on lots of SNL skits too. The best of the bunch had to be
June Squibb, the cantankerous wife who was equal parts valkyrie, bitch, and faithful partner. I kinda liked her. As a movie?
3.5 out of 5 stars - a rental. Would I have bothered to watch it if it weren't nominated? Nope.
