BW...nice observations...I am now searching my brain looking back at past winners...

Boyhood...was a "statement" to the modern family nucleus...IMHO, we had the Ozzi and Harriet model, that ran 25+ years too long...

Being a child of the 70's, I had one friend whose parents were divorced...it was really hard on him and he was only child...Boyhood, was look...divorced kids turn out ok...this is the new normal...I would like to thank the Academy...

Cooper verse Keaton...Cooper did nail Kyle and I believe I commented it was by far his best role...But I felt Keaton's performance was nuanced, even though his mannerism were not...his internal dialog and Birdman persona were two different streams of thought...the surreal aspects of Birdman...wasn't necessarily "HIS" internal dialog...almost 3rd person...3 sides verses 2...just my $.02
thanks
Mark
