![]() ![]() I like about 60 percent of Beerfest - she’s part of the other 40 percent. Only a few years before winning Best Supporting Actress, she had a supporting role in Beerfest. And their embarrassments are on a much larger (and mock-able) scale. For me (and maybe, for you) it’s a reminder that no matter how much garbage we have to slog through in our own lives and careers… all these super successful Hollywood types do it too. So my angle on Oscar coverage is going to be a lesson: Everyone does a whole bunch of crappy, embarrassing, demeaning, brutal stuff in their career before things take a monumental turn for the better. Illogical script, Keanu Reeves delivering the woodenest performance of his career, cringeworthy lines in every scene and a corniness that pretty much defines why we’re all desperate to forget the early ’90s.Īnd now, just under two decades later, the woman who directed that becomes the first woman to win the Oscar for Best Director. Sure, I have a burning nostalgic love of Point Break (and once did a list of the 11 cheesiest Point Break quotes)… but, in a vacuum, it’s one of the worst movies ever. This is the same woman who directed Point Break. Last night, as I watched Kathryn Bigelow win the Oscar for Best Director, there was only one thought in my mind. ![]() From Kathryn Bigelow directing Point Break to a composer who started off doing music for a Jurassic Park video game, it can be a long journey to the Oscars.
