This is not a crowd that cares about film nominations much, but I will prattle on anyway.
Imagine my surprise this morning to see a film called “St. Louis Superhero” nominated in the best Documentary short category. I know nothing about this film. Looked it up and lo, it is about our former Missouri house representative, my district guy. Ferguson protestor extraordinaire. Who I had to vote for in a 2nd election when he ran against the corrupt local Democratic machine which illegally stuffed the ballot box. He won the 2nd time.
He is a former “battle rapper” whatever the hell that is.
While it was painful for me to have to vote for him, it was necessary to oust the lying liars who lied.
