Not many surprises and I suspected "the Favourite" and "Roma" would get numerous nods. Both were great films.

However, isn't "Black Panther" the first superhero film to be nominated for Best Picture? That was sort of a surprise.

Gillian Welch and David Rawlings - When a Cowboy Trades His Spurs for Wings - Oscars 2019

* I don't have the exact quote, but I guess the story goes that Gillian was on Grateful Dead tour like a lot of us, sleeping under the stars on the beaches of California...Robert Hunter was quoted as saying something to the effect of "Gillian is doing something that no one else is doing musically."

I'd never heard of it either.
I'd never heard of it either. Apparently, it's about the black jazz pianist Don Shirley and his tours through the Deep South in the Jim Crow era as he is driven by his white chauffeur.
I was wondering why I'd sold a few Don Shirley LPs. The guy was always too tedious for me, closer to lounge music.
