I really didn’t ever expect to have so darn much of Shia LaBeouf’s penis in my life

... and supporting phenom Ellen Burstyn, who gets a tailor-made Oscar Clip Speech at the film's mid-point-ish that will have her in the running, if not the surefire win, for that prize.
Good, you can just give Ellen Burstyn the damn Oscar you bastards stole from her now #piecesofawoman pic.twitter.com/3noLKxiOfq

(As an aside the actress Frances Fisher -- Scary Mom from Titanic! -- liked the above tweet a few days ago, and nearly blew my knickers off.) Not that I know things! I make comments like that and must immediately backtrack them because I pay about 0.025% attention to Oscar-prognostications and just don't tend to care. Like I could click over to The Film Experience where my pal Nat ranks who's who in the race and get a clue, but that'd be pretending, and I'd forget it all within an hour. My main point is Ellen Burstyn is typically fantabulous and when such things are assessed, awards-wise, they'd be fools to forget her.
Pieces of a Woman is getting a theatrical release (supposedly) at the tail-end of December, and then hitting Netflix on January 7th. Not sure if I'll ever review it properly but it's better than I expected it to be -- that is I had zero expectations besides the actors would be good and they are, they're all great, but on top of that it's actually gorgeously filmed and edited too, which felt like a bonus. Also you'll be hearing a lot about that opening sequence and you totally should, because it's a stunner.

Ellen can have an Oscar this year if she gives her Oscar to its rightful owner - Gena.
