Ellar Coltrane stars in the coming of age tale 'Boyhood'











In the year 2002 actor Ellar Coltrane is a 7 year old boy with an opportunity to be a part of what some critics are calling, cinematic history. Coltrane portrays Mason, a boy who grows up on screen for the next 12 years of his life in Academy Award nominated director Richard Linklater’s Boyhood. The film showcases the ensemble cast for over a decade focusing on the effects of living in a broken home and what it can do to a young boy and his family.

My 2014 Oscar Predictions!

This Sunday, March 2, 2014 is the 86th annual Academy Awards and will be hosted by actress/comedian/talk show host, Ellen DeGeneres. Most of the fun in watching the prestigious award show is guessing who will take home the highest award in film that night. Therefore, I compiled a list of the biggest awards to be presented, which are best supporting actor, best supporting actress, best actor, best actress, best director and of course best picture. I predicted who will win, and who I think should win. These are all predictions and my opinion, so please share who you think will win or should win. This year was a lot more complicated than last year (I predicted every award in those categories that won last year), I feel as though the category for Best Actor might just be the most anticipated award, mainly because everyone nominated other thanChristian Bale has never won an Oscar, and Matthew McConaughey who is considered the front runner earned his first nod for this role. Also, it truly is anyone's game, being that there are many predictions that this could be Leonardo DiCaprio's year (he has been nominated four times and never won) and this could potentially be a big win for Chiwetel Ejiofor as well. This year has such incredible talent and fantastic films to be celebrated, so make sure to tune in on Sunday on ABC to see who will be this year's Oscar winners!

The nominees in this category are Jonah Hill (The Wolf of Wall Street), Michael Fassbender (12 Years a Slave), Bradley Cooper (American Hustle), Barkhad Abdi (Captain Philips) and Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club).
Who Should Win: Hands down, Jared Leto deserves this Oscar. He was completely committed to the transgender role of Rayon in Dallas Buyers Club. Although the other nominees were great, especially Michael Fassbender in 12 Years a Slave, no one comes close to the tragic and complex character that Leto brought to life on the big screen.
Who Will Win: Jared Leto. The only person I could possibly see winning this category other than Leto which is highly unlikely would be Michael Fassbender. But, Leto physically, mentally and emotionally transformed himself into this heartbreaking character that audiences everywhere will adore.
