Oscars 2015 - Nominees Announced

It's been a while but I'm back just in time for Oscar season! So, the nominees have been announced and it's all about the countdown to the ceremony on Sunday February 22nd. There have been a few surprises, like Jake Gyllenhall's missing from the nominations for his totally engrossing and terrifying performance in Nightcrawler.

Now it's all been announced, here at Silver-Celluloid we thought you might like to see a full review of each film that has been nominated. Over the next few weeks we are going to do just that.
