Will he ever lighten up? |
And The Oscar (rarely) Goes
To… The Comedy.
We all
know that comedy is hard. Writing it. Performing it. Directing it. So why does
the Academy snub it? Last I counted, only 10 comedies have ever won an Oscar
for Best Picture. Now I know that the nice folks at the Academy value a good
joke. You only have to look as far as the list of comedic hosts to see that.
Imagine watching the Oscars without Billy or Whoopie or Ellen or Seth. A
dreadful snore, right? So why when it comes to handing out the golden statues
for Best Picture or Best Director or Best Screenplay the Academy folks seem to
lose their sense of humor? John Farr sheds some light on the subject and shares
a list of comedies that he thinks deserved an Oscar nod. http://huff.to/11U34S7
