The heckler is when the frat boy calls him a terrorist and almost gets slaughtered by Holly Hunter.

Right... that's in "Comedic" ? I mean there is funny stuff in it, but I remember it as mostly an emotional scene.

And the Filmspot for Best Soundtrack goes to ...... Baby Driver!

     Baby Driver — 33.9%
     Call Me by Your Name — 30.5%
     Lady Bird — 15.3%
     I, Tonya — 11.6%
     Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 — 8.7%

BOO!

Baby Driver was a bad film in all respects. Almost unfinishable. I only did it to vote against it.

Phantom Thread is the biggest gap in my viewing.

Seriously. I'm not a PTA fan myself, so this was the last film I watched before voting. Big surprise, but most of all a big relief, because, to put it mildly, I wasn't enthusiastic about the available choices in most categories before.

Sad to see that Lady Macbeth finished so low in both Debut and AS.

Surprised by the Baahubali 2 win, which was at the lower end of the Overlooked films for me, but I'm still okay with it.

We've failed the history books by not picking the CMBYN soundtrack. Generations from now, they'll laugh at this moment.

In truth the film just frustrated me. I never got on board with it any of the characters. It was maybe, MAYBE, on the level of The Losers or something. :-\

I regret not watching Logan Lucky... I passed to see Baby Driver for the filmspots.
