Film and Theatre Lover!
Here we go for the 2019 Oscars with Kevin Hart being announced as the host for the show. This is the first thing towards the build up to the ceremony and it will be time to start watching the other awards nominations to get an idea of which films will be up for the amazing Academy Awards!
Here is the full list of the Oscar winners for 2018! Not a massive amount of surprises especially on the acting front, but I am so happy with The Shape of Water taking Best Picture!

The top award an actress can hope to win which also means Meryl Streep will somehow be involved! I think this year we have been given five fantastic performances which are all very different and from very different types of films. That certainly shows that this has been a great year for the roles women have been getting, especially considering the very negative time Hollywood has had. This will be a very good celebration for talent and roles.
Let’s have one last look at the actresses who have been nominated for performances in a leading role . . .
Over the years I have found that the supporting actress category always seems to be the weakest, however I do not think that is the case this year. I feel as though it could have been more open this year but Janney has been leading the whole pack. But when you look closer at the different roles it really could have gone to any of the nominees for such strong performances in very good films.

The top award for any actor as they take on the leading role, a very strong year which is evident when you look at the nominees!
Have a little look at the five actors nominated in the leading role . . .
This is always a pretty tough category because of the strong performances from the actors and not usually too much between the nominees and I think that is something that can be said for 2018 as well.
Let’s take a closer look at the five actors who have been nominated in a supporting role . . .
Again this year nine films have been nominated for the top award of Best Picture, always creating good talking points around film as people can often never understand why some were nominated and then go onto win. I think this year is actually pretty strong and a decent range, but I will get more into each individual film.
Let’s have one last look at each of the films that have been nominated . . .
I think this year could well be a struggle to watch all of the films in time for the Oscar ceremony, here we have the films nomiated this year!

You always have to love the photos they take of the acting winners at the end!
Gutted about this one in all honesty as I thought Denzel was a much better performance!
