TII Screened For Academy of Motion Picture

Posted on: 3rd November 2009

A veteran Oscar voter predicts Michael Jackson’s “This Is It” will be nominated for best picture based upon its reception at today’s Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences screening.

He e-mails Gold Derby this report,

“Just attended Sunday afternoon screening of ‘This Is It’ at AMPAS in Goldwyn Theater before a capacity audience (1,000 seats) to experience the most enthusiastic response I’ve ever witnessed in 40 years of academy screenings. Similar to but better than the reaction given to ‘Chicago’ a few years ago.  Audience broke into applause at least 10 times. They were ‘mesmerized’ and gave film an enormous reception as credits rolled. The editing is brilliant.

I predict it will be the first doc to ever make the best picture nomination list, especially now that there are 10 best pic noms. I also consider the work ‘a gift to the world.’ “
