4. For Best Picture

Roma was too dull for me. More like looking at a picture than watching a great picture. Green Book is the safe Oscar winner type that usually wins. My favorite this year was A Star Is Born but the voters seemed to take a turn on it during the award season. BlacKKKlansman may be a little too cutting edge for the Academy voters. It reminds us that racism will never die but when you stop fighting it comes back stronger. The final images are a rallying cry against racism in America today.
