Fruitvale Station - I had an intense headache after watching this the other night, and it lasted all night long and into the morning, and I wouldn't have it differently because this movie was so good. It's about a young man named Oscar, who is trying to get his life together, and it takes place in Oakland, California in 2009 and the early morning hours of 2010. After watching Fruitvale Station, you'll wonder why the movie or any of the actors were not nominated for Academy Awards. It's that good, and Michael B. Jordan, the actor who plays Oscar deserved to be among the best actor nominees. As a movie, this was certainly better than Her and Nebraska, and on par with Philomena, Captain Phillips, Gravity and American Hustle. This year was a year of tough stories and strong people, and Fruitvale Station can take it's place near the top even though it went unrecognized by the cool kids. And by the way, cool kids, where were Lone Survivor and Don Jon on your list? Nine nominees and Lone Survivor not among them? Huh?
