Oscar Night is like the Superbowl to me. This night is definitely one of my favorites of the year. I love the evening gowns, the accolades, and most importantly: the movies! Here are my predictions for the Oscars of 2013 in the top categories:
Best Picture: This is a very tough prediction for this year. If it were up to me, I would say Silver Linings Playbook but based on the reception at other award shows, I'd say Argo
Best Actor: Daniel Day-Lewis in Lincoln
Best Actress: Jennifer Lawrence in Silver Linings Playbook
Best Supporting Actor: Tommy Lee Jones for Lincoln
Best Supporting Actress: Anne Hathaway for Les Miserables
Best Director: Stephen Spielburg for Lincoln
Have a great night at the Oscars everyone!

Les Miserables
Movie: Les Miserables
Major Actors: Hugh Jackman, Anne Hathaway, Russel Crowe, Amanda Seyfried, Helena Bonham Carter, Sacha Baron Cohen, Eddie Redmayne
Rating: PG-13
Best Audience: Teens and adults....and people who don't mind musicals.
Review:
Most people who did not like Les Miserables cited the fact that the entire movie was sung. Yes, they sing throughout the whole movie. That is a true musical. So as long as you can get past that aspect of the movie, you'll enjoy it. It was very emotional. The thing that struck me the most was the close-up shots during the very emotional songs. I thought that added to the feeling of the scenes. The story is obviously one of the most popular novels of all time. The musical itself is also known around the world. The movie is very sad, but also has a lot of happy moments. I loved it and would recommend it to anyone (as long as they enjoy musicals). If you don't enjoy musicals, read the book (which is one of the longest novels ever written).
