“La La Land,” Damien Chazelle I really don't know what to make of most of these, although it certainly was lush, and I'm sure that's what he was going for. I wish I liked the picture better.
“Hacksaw Ridge,” Mel Gibson He really kept up the tension well in a nicely crafted job.
“Moonlight,” Barry Jenkins The direction had no effect on me.
“Manchester by the Sea,” Kenneth Lonergan The closest thing we have here to art.
It's harder to be artful about prople.
“Arrival,” Denis Villeneuve The second closest thing we have here to art. When you're making a picture about aliens, the art bar is automatically set lower.
The Winner: Kenneth Lonergan.
This film deserves recognition, and this is a good way to do it.
My second choice would be Mel Gibson, but I hear he still hates the Jews.

My books, "Show Runner" and it's sequel, "Show Runner Two", can be found at the Amazon Kindle Store.
Along with the newer ones, "The Man Is Dead", and "Report Cards".
They are all compilations of blog entries that have since been removed from the blog.
So this is the only way you can find them.
You can search by typing in my name, Cindy Williams, Laverne and Shirley, The Odd Couple, or Happy Days.
Check them out.
You don't need a Kindle machine to download them.
Just get the free app from Kindle, and they can be downloaded to an IPhone, IPad, or Blackberry.
The paperbacks, "Mark Rothman's Essays" and my new novel, "I'm Not Garbo" are not e-books.
But they are available for people without Kindle.
I have many readings and signings lined up for those, and the thing about Kindle is you can't sign one.
If you'd like one of the paperbacks, personally autographed, contact me at macchus999@comcast.net
And now, we've got my reading of my "Laverne and Shirley Movie" screenplay on YouTube.
