Abject apologies in the delay in getting this up. Would that the whole of our professional lives were wrapped up in the Oscars. We’ll do our very best to be timely in all commentary.
Without further delay, however, some off-the-cuff reactions to Tuesday’s announcement (kudos to Anne Hathaway on that finishing school voice she had one, by the way).
Leading Actor
HOLLY LEBER: From the trailer alone, I think Jeff Bridges is incredible in “Crazy Heart.” And it’s finally coming to Chattanooga. Looking very forward to seeing if he lives up to expectation.
CASEY PHILLIPS: Agreed about Bridges, and if the pattern of previous years holds up, expect to see “A Single Man” and other nominated films making their (belated) Chattanooga debut in the coming weeks.
