Academy Awards

On Sunday night, March 7, many of us will be in front of our TVs watching the Academy Awards. I know I try every year to see as many of the nominated films as I can but it’s hard, especially since many of the films aren’t released nationwide until the last few months before the awards. It’s always a challenge.
There are a few nominated films that came out early in the year and are now out on DVD. Those titles are:
District 9
Hurt Locker
Inglourious Basterds
A Serious Man
Up

You may have to put your name on the request list but we do have them here for checkout at the library.
If you want to go back and see some Oscar winners from previous years, we have quite a few of those titles.
All Quiet on the Western Front
Gone with the Wind
Ben-Hur
The Apartment
West Side Story
In the Heat of the Night
Sound of Music
The Godfather
Kramer vs. Kramer
Ordinary People
Gandhi
Terms of Endearment
Platoon
Unforgiven
Gladiator
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
Million Dollar Baby
Crash
No Country for Old Men
Slumdog Millionaire

So make yourself a bowl of popcorn, stick the DVD in your player and watch a great movie!
