Dear newsletter subscribers,

It's Oscar night; I'm writing this in advance, as I'll be at an Oscar party with friends when this is sent out.

Don't tell anyone, but the only best picture nominee I've seen is Barbie. I really do want to see American Fiction and Anatomy of a Fall, but beyond that, I lack patience these days for three-hour movies about serious subjects.

Maybe the Oscars will change my mind! Until then, there's lots of reality TV to watch.
