Justin Trujillo Realtor and Secretary, Cultural Affairs Committee Miami Lakes
“I like [Best Supporting Actor nominee] Jacob Elordi in “Frankenstein,” Justin Trujillo said. “I think it was impressive he disassociated [from] himself in the role he was playing. “It’s easy for an actor to portray himself, but he was able to play a monster, [one] with feelings.”
Sara Jarrell Artistic Director, Main Street Playhouse Hialeah
“Michael B. Jordan [Best Actor nominee, starring as twins in “Sinners”] should win everything, always,” Sara Jarrell said. “He should win for good looks alone. But his acting is beyond what he is able to do and manipulate his face as a character and be so different.”
Thalia Centeno Web Strategist, Florida International University Aventura
“I think Jacob Elordi should win, because he is just so handsome,” Thalia Centeno said. “I wasn’t a fan of “Marty Supreme” [which stars Timothee Chalamet]. I like Jacob a lot more.”
Elsa Reus Vice Chair, Cultural Affairs Committee Miami Lakes
“I saw the movie “Sentimental Value” on my Delta flight this month,” Elsa Reus said in an email. “Actress Renate Reinsve, nominated for Best Actress, was excellent. I also like Timothee Chalamet, nominated for Best Actor. He is great, young and good looking!”
Janiqua Parker Assistant General Manager, CMX Miami Lakes Miami Gardens
“I would say “Sinners,”” Janiqua Parker said. “I believe “Sinners” (which has 16 nominations, including for Best Picture) was a good movie. It had good actors … and the story itself.”
