Asked at Liberty Hall on January 16, 2015
“Out of those nominated, I’d say ‘Birdman’ because it was hilarious, serious and had great cinematography, but I don’t think it’s going to win.”
— Jon Fitzgerald, projectionist, Lawrence
“I haven’t had a chance to see any of the nominees this year.”
— Courtney Jervis, student, Baldwin City
“The one that’s nominated I saw was great — ‘Grand Budapest Hotel’.”
— Sharon Mayer, CLO employee, Lawrence
“The best movie I’ve seen so far this year would be a toss-up between ‘Inherent Vice’ and ‘Ida’ (both not nominated). Haven’t been able to see all the nominees yet, but I’m looking forward to it.”
— Sam Gunnerson, video clerk and bartender, Lawrence
