What a guy

If I had to choose my favorite place in the entire world, I’d choose Provincetown, Massachusetts (or Ptown as it is loving referred). If you’ve never heard of Ptown, that’s ok.

But I’m certainly glad I decided to go and it is an annual tradition to spend some of the summer there every year.

Nine films have been nominated for Best Picture. This includes Parasite, 1917, Jo Jo Rabbit, Joker, Ford v Ferrari, Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, Marriage Story and Little Women. While several bets are placed on Parasite taking home the Academy Award for Best Picture this year, there are also predictions that 1917 and Joker stand a chance to win the Best Picture award. Jonas reached out to her fans and asked them who would win the Oscars for Best Picture this year.
