Congratulations To Amy Madigan On Her Oscar Nomination!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


                            Not since Gladys Cooper livened up "The Song Of Bernadette" with her portrayal of Sister Marie Therese Vazous, the archetypal Catholic nun, has there been a Gladys to rival she, until Amy Madigan came along with her inspired portrayal of Aunt Gladys in last year's horror hit, "Weapons."



                               When I first saw the film I thought Aunt Gladys was a man in drag.  But there was something familiar about those eyes.  Imagine my shock, reading the end credits, to discover this character was played by.........Amy Madigan!!!!!!!!!!!!



                                   I recall Amy's sizzling performance in 1985's family drama, "Twice In A Lifetime."  She deservedly earened an Oscar nod for that one.  Aunt Gladys is in a league and a world by herself, and I cannot wait to find out more about Aunt Gladys.  I wish she would come and visits me!!!!!!!!!!!!



                                     Her look is going to be the next fashion statement.  Just ask ANNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



                                     The moment I realized it was Amy, I fervently hoped she would get an Oscar nomination, and I would love to see her win the Oscar.



                                        But thankfully the Academy recognized her brilliance as Aunt Gladys!!!!!!!!!!!!!
