2014 OSCAR NOMS

If you have scrolled through my past posts you will know that I'm a huge Dicaprio fan.
To see him win an Oscar is on my bucket list. {I know, kinda cheesy}
Going to the Amalfi coast and Tuscany are also on my busket list and I don't see that happening anytime soon either.
However, Leonardo walking away with the golden trophy for Best Actor just might happen this year.
His latest movie 'The Wolf of Wall Street' seems to have viewers either liking it or hating it. Here's the deal..... Mr. Scorsese wanted to bring across to the viewers the lifestyle of a certain individual who scammed people out of millions of dollars in the wall street days of the 1990's. The movie did not focus on the people who lost their money, it focused solely on the spending of it and the abuse. Which is what he wanted to portray. If you go into the theater to see it with this understanding I think you will appreciate it.
Leonardo Dicaprio and Jonah Hill did an excellent job portraying the characters. Especially the scene where they took the Lemon 714 quaaludes.

I've seen other men win an Oscar for best actor that leaves me shaking my head and wondering, what the hell?
 Leonardo has shown again and again what an excellent actor he really is, from What's eating Gilbert Grape to The Aviator, Deception and on up to The Wolf of Wall Street.
Here's hoping that he wins that Oscar, FINALLY! =D
