In the Oscar's their was a split of two disparate groups for short film of the year. It was "Happy Meal'' and "White Tablecloth", they were seen on the new movies, ''Saving Mr. Banks'' and ''Frozen''. Some of the nominees were ''Room on the Broom'' and ''The Blue Umbrella'', that did not win, but did get noticed because the blue umbrella was from Pixar and Room on the Broom was about a bed time story. This article talks about who was nominated and where they have been seen. I would like to have seen all of these films and tell which was my favorite.

Dallas Buyers Club

This film I haven't gotten the chance to see was Dallas Buyers Club, in this article it talks about how Jared Leto got a lot of attention in this movie because he was a transgender who liked to wear miniskirts and heels and the audience wanted to see a man like that. Jared Leto was nominated for an Oscar for the first time and won for the first time for his roll in Dallas Buyers Club, he talked about how he didn't think he didn't do a good job in one of the scenes and others thought other wise, the people that were there were crying when Jared thought it was terrible. Jared didn't seem to complain that he had to wear make up, skirts, and heels the entire film, but he did say that he didn't have his armor and it was the only time he dressed like a man in the film. Even though Jared thought his scene was terrible it actually came out beautiful he says.
