And the Oscar Goes To....

And we all should know what movies these props were in:







One thing I didn't take pics of where the actual Oscar statues that they had there (Bad Blogger) but I did get lucky. They had this video montage of different films and I was lucky enough to take a pic of this one:


The Academy Award Museum in Los Angeles is a must when in the city.

  5. Very interesting! Last time I was in LA the building for the Academy Museum was still under construction, which was fascinating in itself.

    Hope you have a great week!
