The Oscars® this year was a bit off and different from tradition. The times have changes and shifted since COVID-19. Film was an industry struck down but The Academy Awards took on the challenge and created an event that was elegant and entertaining in a time where it is much needed. My favorite films this year was The Octopus Teacher and The United States vs. Billie Holiday. What was your favorite film from the last year? Post your answer here.
The Golden Globes brings a night of entertainment, honesty about their issues, and COVID-19 friendly night by going by-costal and first responders attendees. The distance was felt but it was a cozy night at home for actors and audience.

How James created the look he states, “The most stunning look definitely goes to Curtis hair by Sean James Hair. The dress styled by J Ross Girl makeup by Jo Strettell. How to get the look I used Stylus Hair Care high altitude for volume Bed Head by Tigi manipulator for texture and Stay Styled by Stylus Hair Care. Curtis takes the top look and styling for the evening, classic, and stunning.
Sean James Stylist to The Stars
James has exceptional pandemic hair tip, “put your mask on and go and see your hairstylist. If you want a salon to go back to get in and support your hairstylist, salons are on the brink of closing for good all over the country. It’s time, if you are going to the grocery store you are ok in the salon. If you are afraid to sit in the salon while your color develops you can go and sit in your car for the developing time.” We all need to get back to beauty for sure. Style for the day you want not the day you have.
Golden Globes Showtime
The first ever bi-coastal Golden Globes. The audience is first responders from New York and Los Angeles. What a. great night. As Sean James, hair stylist to Jamie Curtis, states, “I feel like we are all going to be OK!” It really did make it feel all will be well.

He did not expect to win this evening. Ben Stiller enjoys a perfect banana bread loaf he made during the pandemic on stage. Guess that is the food for the evening.

Lear states, “laughter add time one’s life.” Fonda, made her first film in 1960, Tall Story. She states “we are humans firsts. . . expand that tent so that everyone rises.”

I Care A Lot film by Netflix’s new movie starring Rosamund Pike. Rosmund Pike’s character Marla Grayson is one you want to hate and fight for during the movie, She is never afraid even in moments when she should be terrified.
I Care A Lot: Rosamund Pike as “Martha”.
I Care A Lot Synopsis
Grayson has found a way to earn a living legally by being a guardianship for elderly. She is strong, confident, and has the trust of many making the decisions for these elderly clients. Her office wall is display of many who she has guardianships over. Her career she has developed that is morally questionable but legal. She convince one doctor to turn over her “golden ticket” guardianship.
Dianne Wiest playing Jennifer Peterson appears perfect on paper for guardianship. She is single, no family, and has money. Grayson gains guardianship over Peterson. She begins to sell her belongings. Little does she know Peterson is connected to the Russian mob boss Roman Lunyov, played by Peter Dinklage.
The story plot then splits in many directions from you loving Grayson and cheering her on as a boss lady, to hating Grayson, and the criminal aspect. Grayson believe in this country you have to be brave, stupid, ruthless, and focused. Playing fair and scared gets you no where.
“Nasty people do terrible things in this wildly entertaining Netflix caper about guardianship fraud,” states, Jeannette Catsoulis from The NYTimes.
I Care A Lot: Rosamund Pike as “Martha” and Dianne Wiest as “Jennifer”.
I Care A Lot Power Struggle
J Blakeson, director of the film, moves this film from boss lady to one woman who will do all that she can to be very rich. The character development is strong in the film. The film becomes lost in the three separate films all tied together with the theme of crime, passion, and power.
Blakeson directs the change from Grayson being all powerful over Peterson to being the underdog. The power Grayson presents with is one of a powerful caring business woman. The power shifts back and forth between Grayson and Lunyov. The end they join their powers together.
There are time the film feels similar to many powerful strong women films but you are questioning yourself on the morality at the ease she takes everything legally.
I CARE A LOT (2021) Peter Dinklage as “Rukov” and Rosamund Pike as “Marla”.
I Care A Lot Are You Afraid?
Lunyov asks Grayson, “I am going to kill you now . . . you’re not afraid of death? Grayson answers, “Do you remember how scary it was in 1807? Me either because I was not alive yet. It will feel the same way when I am dead. Not even nothing why be scared of that.”
Her ability to not be afraid in the end gives her the win of being back in power. Legally making money being guardians with a large corporation gaining the wealth she always wanted in life. The twists and turns leaving some unpredictability in the plot.
In the end she remains ruthless, powerful, and someone who cares (so it appears).
Rosamund Pike is nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy. The award season starts February 28, 2021 Golden Globe ceremony will air live coast to coast 5-8 p.m. PT/8-11 p.m. ET on NBC.

The Visit at Prescott Film Festival Romina Schwedler
The Visit is a day in the time of a visit with a mother (June Squibb) and son (Sean Maher). The story takes a moment in time for the son and develops a sequence of events that changes lives. The son must face the consequences of the events.
Schwedler’s attention to details in the film completes the story. She states, “every little detail, in the lighting, the wardrobe design, and every odd thing matters.” The juxtaposition of the story develops well with the attention to details.
Schwedler develops the story from a conversation with her father about her aunt. Her aunt experiences loss of most family and friends. Coping with the deep grief and loss her aunt develops elaborate stories regarding those she lost. Her techniques in film development here allow the audience to experience the emotions in the story.
The casting for the short film was “serendipitous,” she says. She approaches June Squibb, Oscar-nominated actress, at an award dinner in Los Angeles with a flash drive of the script. Sean Maher, Ben in the short film, heard about the project and appreciates June Squibb’s work. His agent contacted Schwedle in regards to working on the project. The casting provides a twist much like the film. Check local film festival events for screening.
Panemmies is the truth to the 72nd Emmys®. The Emmys® host Jimmy Kimmel made is a memorable night while enduring the pandemic. The nominees were at home with casual wear options for the night. There was no red carpet or after parties planned from the Television Academy due to COVID-19.

Glamorous Night
The evening host Ricky Gervais took on the celebrities to the core from the hostless Oscars, sexual predators, to Felicity Huffman and more. The evening was filled with Ellen DeGeneres getting the Carol Burnett Award and a few our favorite shows took home awards:
L’Oréal make-up has been a staple on the red carpet for so many years. Being in this industry and working with so many other pros we have known that the quality of L’Oréal make-up is superb. We all own and use so many of these products for our Hollywood celebrity clients. The key to our clients and the red carpet are as follows. It’s all about the first foundation that looks like skin, but covers imperfections, and does not make the skin crack or look aged, or dry. Tough one right? Well here enters L’Oréal True Match Lumi. Problem no more, 40 percent of water and vitamin C, they know how to make it happen ladies. My clients, I work with for fashion shows and the red carpet will tell you I create magic. The magic is in the foundation and this foundation is outstanding. 5-star red carpet worthy. Hollywood glowing healthy skin, that’s what I create with this must-have product. The shades are so beautiful, colors are available for all skin types. Never pulls orange after it’s been on the skin, and never settles into fine lines.
Glowing on the Red Carpet
Glamourous Skin
It literally melts into the skin mimicking your own skin but better. Giving you that coverage but not sacrificing the look you are trying to achieve on the red carpet, which is healthy fresh flawless skin. The consistency of this foundation is fabulous and deserves its own Golden Globe. My celebrity clients think I have the magic, but the magic is in this product. It’s a definite must for everyone. Affordable for all which is even better. Like icing on the cake. The next favorite I used for my clients at the Golden Globes show is L’Oréal Pro Glo corrector and concealer, another 5-star red carpet Golden Globe worthy must-have product. Now, you are probably thinking how is that possible for something at such a low price point? Ok this one everyone can relate to. The under-eye area is a very delicate area that is the first to see the signs of aging, dark circles, puffiness, and crepey loose skin. Well, that cannot happen on awards night.
Red Carpet Glamourous
Celebrity queens in front of the cameras, pictures, press, interviews. No time for those annoying imperfection. Here enters, my hero. Saves the day, it is 14-hour to wear, and buildable. L’Oréal Pro Glo correcting and concealer. It’s so hydrating and the texture is so superb that it never looks heavy and dry under the eye. It also photographs beautiful, matching the rest of the skin. My clients do not have the dreaded raccoon eyes. It is so hard to find a product to do this without settling again into lines, especially under the eye. Well, look no further. I am bringing Hollywood looks to all of you beautiful ladies out there, by sharing my tips on things I use on the shows. Oh yes, the best part, price. Anyone can have this item as well. Major affordable, but the quality is impeccable. Use this product with a flat concealer brush, and don’t tug. Press outward gently as you apply. Because if you have puffiness And you press outward only, you will help to move that fluid out of the area it likes to hang out in. Key point guys. Oh yes, my queens, this product is also great to highlight cheekbones, inner corner of eyes and tip of the nose. For the real Hollywood glam glow. These are my choices and must-haves to start out your 2020 to a new younger-looking you. P.S. This is what I’m wearing in my photo featured here. God bless, your all-stars your all beautiful. The Golden Globe goes to All of us. Until my next review, be the beautiful best you are. Best always. Gia Klime.

Vegan Dinner for the 77th Golden Globes. Setting a dynamic dinner for the elite of Hollywood is always a challenge. This year for the first time the Golden Globes has asked the Beverly Hilton chefs to create a completely plant-based menu.
Menu Golden Globe Awards
Vegan Menu Decision
The last year we have seen an increase in plant-based food from the Impossible and Awesome Burger. “For the first time the meal served to our guests will be entirely plant-based, a way to focus awareness on the need to countenance sustainable lifestyles as our world moves towards climate and environmental insecurity.” The menu has no meat or dairy in any dish. The Golden Globes takes the challenge and brings a star-studded menu.
King Oyster Mushrooms
Vegan Dinner
Vegan Menu
The celebrities attending the Golden Globes this year will find a glamourous filling dinner. The menu includes:
The appetizer is chilled golden beet soup. This is prepared with shaved candy-striped beets, citrus oil, pistachio, micro chervil, and amaranth
The entrée will be “scallops” made from king oyster mushrooms, served with wild-mushroom risotto, roasted baby purple, and green brussels sprouts, globe carrots, and pea tendrils.
The dessert is a “Vegan Opera Dome,” with choco brilliance, praline gunaja crumble, caramelized hazelnuts, and passion crispy.
Vegan Menu Changes
Executive pastry chef Thomas Henzi discusses making a beautiful cake without the use of gelatin, eggs, milk, or butter. This is a completely plant-based pastry. “It is a bit different when coming to pastries. You have to always learn new things,” Henzi states.
Executive chef Matthew Morgan says, “It is exciting to be a part of it. The statement that it is making is extremely important.” The menu looks to be as fancy as years past and the celebrities should have plenty to eat and drink.
