Silver Linings Playbook


Nominated Movie

After a stint in a mental institution, former teacher Pat Solitano (Bradley Cooper) moves back in with his parents and tries to reconcile with his ex-wife. Things get more challenging when Pat meets Tiffany (Jennifer Lawrence), a mysterious girl with problems of her own.

This is what acting is all about, such a great cast and amazing performances by them all.  Bradley Cooper nailed it with his character, absolutely turning the page on whom he is and what he can do as an actor.  Jennifer Lawrence is talented beyond her years.  I thought it would be difficult for her to top the performance she gave in Winter’s Bone, but like Bradley, she too is just beginning to give us a glimpse of what she is capable of.  Thank God Chris Tucker has resurfaced with a career resurrecting performance.  This movie is what we all want to be, unfiltered and in your face with no apologies love it or leave it attitude.  Along with the message of always being able to find the silver lining in everything and believing that things will work in your favor quickly made this movie a favorite of mine.

Congratulations to Jennifer Lawrence and her Golden Globe victory and to Bradley Cooper on his nominations as well.  Be sure not to miss this one.

Enjoy the show.
