Or for today's dopes ... The Oscars.It is no longer that special night on TV.I used to consider it the best night of TV each year. That was when Jack Lemmon was still around.I knew when he got too old to show it was Bad news.There are no more Actors like Jack Lemmon. He was the spirit of the Big Party ... known as the Academy Awards. Or for today's Dopes ... The Oscars. Jack Nicholson was also part of the fun.Chevy Chase hosted the funniest Academy Awards.Or for Today's dopes ... the Oscars. Billy Kristol was overall the best.The worst was of course the spoiled Black Brat ... Whoppi Goldberg.She personifies all that's wrong with today's Politics.I refuse to watch any movie of hers. The Academy Awards or for Todays dopes ... The Oscars didn't used to be SO political.It was somewhat always a little political.Like when Marlon Brando refused to go and accept his Oscar and instead had a Native American Indian Lady accept for him.She made a little speech also. The year was 1973 and it was March 5th.The Woman who wore an Apache Dress with long dark hair was Sacheen Littlefeather and she was President of the National Native American Affirmative Image Committee. As Roger Moore presented Ms.Littlefeather with the Oscar she waived it away with an open palm.She had a set of papers and explained due to time constraints she couldn't read but would make available later to the press.She said in representing Marlon Brando " who very regretfully cannot accept this very generous award " and gave a few simple examples. The reason was because of the Film Industry's treatment of the American Indians. The next day the New York Times printed the entirety of Brando's statement. This encapsulates the Problem Brando perceived and felt very strongly about. So much so he turned down an Oscar :
" The Motion Picture Community has been as responsible as any for degrading the indian and making a mockery of his character,describing him as savage,hostile and evil.It's hard enough for children to grow up in this world.When Indian children see their race depicted as they are in films,their minds become injured in ways we can never know. " -- Marlon Brando
Someone with the guts needs to make a similar plea in regards to how Hollywood or the Motion Picture Community Treats Conservatives and Republicans in this Land.Most importantly our Newly Elected President. But Conservatives are not impolite,rude and In your face.Like most those at the Oscars who make political statements.What Brando did was warranted.It was desperately over due.It was necessary. The same sort of thing need be done in the name of all whose who support Donald Trump and are Conservatives. Enough is enough ... already. The left's grip on our Culture has reached a fever pitch. It must be halted.Like stopping a freight train with a plastic wiffle bat. At least that's a start.
Or Feast of the Limousine Liberals.Jimmy Kimmel may tone down attempts to diminish Trump because his once colleague { Adam Carola } is sort of a Conservative.Many fellow colleagues have become estranged due to a Trump Presidency. Keep in mind that Our First Lady { Melania Trump } is hosting a Governors Ball tonight. Will it be a Ball to receive an Oscar ... Tonight. ?
Thankfully by the Grace of God ... Warren Beatty's older sister looks fine and dandy.That being Shirley Maclaine.Who in 1960 starred in one of Hollywoods BEST Movies ever.One I still watch ever year and enjoy.Feeling it is exempt from being jaded.It is that Good and believably acted.Billie Wilder is that Great a Master of Cinema.Even surpassing those like Alfred Hitchcock.
Give me a John Wayne movie any day over what is now being peddled by Hollywood. And if he killed dozens of Indians in the movies he was in, at least many Indians got paying jobs in his movies.
I barely watched it.That being the Night of the Stars.Because there weren't many Stars.Sure Waren Beatty is a star.But I think he pulled that stunt on purpose.Because he was grimacing before he goofed.I was wondering ... What's up with Beatty.He seems worried.Never was before.Not on Dobie Gillis but he was in his best Movie.His very first. - Splendor in the Grass - { 1961 }starring Natalie Wood. Little Deanie Loomis and Bud Stamper { Town's Rich kid and star Quarterback }. No one who takes movies seriously will ever forget Bud and Deanie.Nor - Bonnie & Clyde - { 1967 }. Beatty was always a big Ladies man.But as Bud Stamper he was just a good kid and athlete.All he wanted was to Be a Farmer and manage his Rich Father's Ranch. And of course marry Deanie Loomis his inseperable high school sweetheart. But his* old man insisted he wait a little befiore Marrying Deanie.Do him this one favor and go to college and then he can do practically anything he choses. But Bud was worried.Deanie was also a Good girl.Or as they say a Nice girl. Didn't put out.And Bud was being pressured by his high school buddies to get himself another girl { on the side }. One that puts out.Because he needs to release some of that sexual tension.Last Night Bud Stamper was a bit of his old self. Kinda shy and a bit worried.Had his girl next to him.Even his Older sis { Shirley MacLaine }. But Bud flunked Big Time. Like he did while in college and missing his sweetheart, Deanie.Bud pretty much flunked out of Harvard on purpose. Then his old man lost everything in the Stock Market crash of '29 and jumped out a window.Bud's older sis in the movie was the town whore. A Real floozie she was.Ended up in a deadly car crash.Everyone expected about as much.She Majored in art in college.Bud's old man used to say ... Art who ? Deanie { The little Loomis girl } had a nervous breakdown in her senior year and was institutionalized.Bud intentionally flunked every course,starting drinking and could care less.However he did meet a girl who looked a lot like Deanie while in college.She worked as a waitress at a little Pizzeria.Bud left college after his old man jumped to his death.Bud's Mom lost all everything but the Ranch.Moved into an Old Folks home.Bud married the waitress and worked the Ranch.That's all he ever wanted.That and to Marry " the Little Loomis girl ". Which he was denied. Such is life. " No ... nothing can bring back the hour, the splendor in the grass,glory of the flower.We will grieve not,but rather find strength in what remains behind," * found oil on his spread and got stinkin; rich.
I was gonna phone-in this morning to the Mike Gallagher Radio Show. Because Galagher made a very unflatteting remark about Hollywood Stars { Actors & Actress' }.That the dirty little secret is ... They basically dumb.That Actors and Actress' really are kinda dumb. Funny since most Actress and Actors really are quite bright whenever on Game shows.Especially shows like - 25,ooo Pyramide -. Plus most Actors & Actress have college degrees. Mike Gallagher never went to college. Plus Gallagher was a struggling OFF Broadway Actor in bit parts in his spare time.Went into detail about how great an Actress the Brilliant Sally Struthers was and is.Just because he did a play with her.Toured at like Dinner Clubs. But I kept thinking whenever Gallagher used to go off on tangents about the Great Sally Struthers.What is he nuts.She had one dopey but noticeable role as an Actress.As Gloria in the Hit ... - All in the Family -. Gallagher is the same goofball who thinks Mike Lindell is some kind of great Inventor and possible saint because of his dopey - My Pillow -. Gallagher is also the same goofball who defended to the hilt the right of Flailing Hostess to make sure and by all means keep producing : Twinkies Real Brainiac Food thar Bubba.
Academy Awards? Was this the award ceremony where the idiot liberals from Hollywood announced the wrong winner?
