Thank You AMC!

If you are an uber-film-fan, then the AMC Best Picture Showcase is for you.
The AMC Best Picture Showcase gives you the chance to see all of the films nominated for the Best PIcture Oscar: five films the first week, and the second group of five films the next.
It is so wonderful because it gives you a chance to compare performances. For example, True Grit played right before The Fighter this year. This gave me a chance to compare the two performances in the most highly-variable Acting race this year (that of Best Supporting Actress going to Hailee Steinfeld for "True Grit" or Melissa Leo in "The Fighter").
They gave us an hour for lunch/dinner between "The Kids Are All Right" and "True Grit". I appreciated this time (I don't remember if they did this last time). I really appreciated this.
