12 Years Experience
By Miles X. Logan
Hope springs eternal in Hollywood on Oscar night. But once nominees hear that other guy’s name called, despair sets in or, as Tina Fey famously puts it, “the heavy drinking begins.”
There will be a lot more losers than winners Sunday night, but the euphoria the winners feel is very real, and for good reason; the prestige associated with winning an Oscar never fades -- it is a career-making achievement.
For Best Suppor ting Actor: Jared Leto turned in the year’s best performance as a transvestite in Dallas Buyers Club and his peers know it. If there is an upset Michael Fassbender (12 Years A Slave) or
Barkhad Abdi (Captain Phillips) are the likely recipients: Who should win: Leto. Who will win: Leto.
For Best Supporting Actress: This is a two horse race: Lupita Nyong’o, magnificent in Slave, versus Jennifer Lawrence, for her star turn in American Hustle.
Who Should Win: Lawrence. Who Will Win: Nyong’o.
For Best Picture: The sense here is that Hustle has peaked and Gravity is picking up steam. There is some thought that 12 Years A Slave has too much gratuitous violence, but it remains the frontrunner. Who should win: Gravity. Who will win: 12 Years A Slave.
For Best Actress: Cate Blanchett clearly turned in the best performance
of the year in Blue Jasmine, but Judi Dench is the sentimental favorite for her work in Philomena. Don’t discount Oscar-fave Sandra Bullock (Gravity). Who should win: Blanchett. Who will win: Blanchett.
Fo r Be s t Ac to r : Ma t t hew McConaughey, like Leto, threw everything he has into his role as an AIDS victim, including nearly starving himself to death. Leo DiCaprio, delicious as the rogue stock trader in Wolf Of Wall Street, is the only serious contender. Who should win: McConaughey: Who will win: McConaughey, even if it means enduring one of his weird, non-sensical acceptance speeches.
Others awards: The Best Director statue will go to the winner of
the Best Picture Oscar — either Alfonso Cuaron for Gravity or Steve McQueen for Slave.
For Best Original Screenplay: Her (Woody Allen owns this award but given the negative press this year . . .); Best Adapted Screenplay: 12 Years A Slave; Best Animated Film: Frozen.
For Best Original Song: “Happy” from Despicable Me 2 was the top selling song of the year and a megahit for Grammy darling Pharrell Williams. But “Let It Go” from Frozen is the favorite, “Ordinary Love,” performed by U2, won the Golden Globe and “The Moon Song” from Her also has its supporters. The heart says “Happy” but the voters will likely choose “Let It Go.”
And The Winners Are . . .

Few can argue that Ralph Kramden remains the most iconic figure in the history of television.
“The Honeymooners” ruled the airways for decades, with Jackie Gleason playing the bombastic, scheming bus driver alongside his long suffering wife, Alice, and their nutty upstairs neighbors, Norton and Trixie.
Over the better part of the next three decades – Gleason later hosted a variety show with a generous helping of “Honeymooners” skits – Gleason’s catchphrases became part of the American lexicon.
“One of these days pow! to the moon, Alice!” he would bellow to Alice, a toothless threat that she always shrugged off. “And away we go” he would say after the monologue of his variety show as he shuffled towards the wings. “How Sweet It Is” he would bellow after some harebrained get-rich-quick scheme appeared to bear fruit.
Gleason grew up in a poor family in Brooklyn on Chauncey Street, just down the block from where the original TV series was set. He drew his characters from real people he observed as a child; the central characters, perhaps, modeled after his parents. Shows almost always ended with each spouse proclaiming their love for each other, no matter how bleak their financial picture was.
That was wishful thinking, though – when Gleason was 14 his father, an insurance salesman, packed up everything he owned and disappeared, never to be seen again.
Gleason’s mother died when he was 19 and the youngster, a high school dropout, made money hustling pool and acting as a master-of-ceremonies at a local theater. He shared a hotel room with two
Today’s Birthday: Jackie Gleason, 1916
comedians and when a gig at a comedy club opened up he hustled his way into the job.
He was spotted by Jack Warner and soon began appearing in movies. His first TV gig, on “Life With Riley” led to the role on “The Honeymooners.”
Gleason was far more than a comedian, though. He was a musician and a gifted actor. In The Hustler, Gleason not only played the pool-shooting master Minnesota Fats, but he made his own billiard shots on camera.
“The Honeymooners” and its assorted revivals were fan favorites for three decades. Re-runs are shown daily all over the world – Gleason carefully kept master tapes of many of the original shows that have since been digitally remastered.
His film career flourished as well, with a star turn as the sheriff Buford T. Justice in Smokey And The Bandit and with Tom Hanks in 1986 in Nothing In Common where he played an aging salesman who becomes seriously ill. Gleason, in fact, was just that: he died of colon cancer the following year.
New To Theaters
Three Days To Kill (PG-13) This is your basic wintertime box office fodder and a nice paycheck for the always reliable Kevin Costner. He plays (yes) an international spy whose last assignment is to hunt down and kill (yes) the world’s most ruthless terrorist while coping with a (wait for it . . . ) rebellious teenaged daughter he hasn’t seen in years. That would be Hailee Steinfeld of True Grit fame.
Coming Soon
Need For Speed (PG-13) It used to be the other way around but now Hollywood is making movies that originated as video games. This one, courtesy of Dreamworks, is based on a cross country race against time and features (ta-da) breathless car race footage – but you already figured that out.
New On DVD
Captain Phillips Tom Hanks is predictably terrific in the title role, based on the real-life hijacking of an American container ship by Somalian rebels. Unfortunately, the lurching footage designed to capture the real life rolling seas is predictably nauseating. Barkhad Abdi, as the head rebel, turns in a multi-layered performance. Director Paul Greengrass insisted on injecting a political message, and that doesn’t help matters.
Now Playing300 Rise Of An Empire (R) The
original spawned a new genre, and now the stampede begins: scantily clad muscular men slice and dice the living crap out of each other. Hey, someone’s gotta do it.
Adult World ( R ) The plot, reminiscent of Frances Ha, revolves around a young college poet (Emma Roberts) who becomes obsessed with an obscure older poet (John Cusack). The movie has none of the charm of Ha, and Roberts is no Greta Gerwig. Cusack does his best, but with a character named “Rat” he was doomed to fall short. It’s pretty disheveled and doesn’t really go anywhere.

Ingredients (serves 4)3 large turnips (peeled and sliced
thin on a Japanese mandolin)3 oz horseradish root (peeled and
grated on a box grater)2 oz aged white cheddar cheese
(grated on box grater)2 oz Parmesan cheese (grated on
box grater)1 c panko breadcrumbs
2 oz butter1 quart heavy cream
3 sprigs rosemarysalt and pepper to taste
MethodHeat your oven to 350 degrees.
While the oven is coming up to
Turnip And Horseradish Gratintemperature you can steep the rosemary in the heavy cream over low heat, while you toast the panko bread crumbs. To toast the panko simply heat the butter in a pan. When the butter is melted add the panko and stir over medium heat until the breadcrumbs have become nice and golden brown.
At this point you can slice your turnips and grate the horseradish and the cheeses. In a mixing bowl, add the grated ingredients together and toss until they are incorporated.
Now you are ready to assemble the gratin. First, remove the rosemary from the cream. In a 9 inch x 9 inch baking dish, add a bit of the cream
and put down a layer of the thinly sliced turnip followed by salt and pepper, and a generous layering of the grated cheeses and horseradish.
Add a bit more cream and repeat, continuing this process until you are
out of ingredients. Be sure not to use all the cream if you don't have to. The idea is to lightly cover the turnips.
Finish with a generous layer of bread crumbs and cheese and let it cook at 350 for two and a half hours.
