Movie Fans Rejoice! The Oscar Nominations Are In

The Academy Award nominations are in, we know who may win the coveted Oscar this year, and on Oscar Sunday, February 28, at 7 p.m., we will know the winners. The excitement is building.

Two of the most talked-about movies at Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah were filmed in Michigan. "The End of The Tour" was filmed in Grand Rapids. "It Follows" was filmed in Detroit and surrounding communities including Sterling Heights, Royal Oak, and Clawson. The films are receiving excellent reviews and even early Oscar talk.

Entertainment Weekly has released the 2015 much anticipated 2015 Oscar nominations, and to no surprise, Birdman and The Grand Budapest Hotel led this year’s class of Oscar films with nine nominations apiece, including nods for Best Picture and Best Director.

The 86th annual Academy Awards brought together Hollywood's best, but some of the best went home empty handed, again.

Did you watch the announcement?  The nominees are in for 2014's top movie award, the Oscar. You could have watched it live, here on 100.5 The River's website. Missed it, huh.  Let me catch you up to date.
