my picks for tonight’s 90th Academy Awards (the Oscars for 2017’s films) (winners indicated)

Oscar Nominated Documentary Shorts 2018 (90th Academy Awards) review
My pick: “Heaven Is a Traffic Jam on the 405,” a marvelous portrait of artist Mindy Alper, one that challenges us all to know ourselves as well as she seems to, even when it’s incredibly painful.
11/8/16 (aka November 8th) documentary review: too soon, too soon
An important portrait of America on the day that changed it for the worse… but difficult to watch, with the impact of the election still spiraling out of control.
