A beanie?

To the Academy Awards?

Where you're a nominee?

Is that how you prove you're an artiste?

We get it; awards are meaningless to you because you're all about "The Work" and keeping it real, but have some class, man.

What is the opposite of doubt? Is it certainty? Belief? Or is it hope?

When John Patrick Shanley decided to bring Doubt, his Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning play, to the screen as both the film’s director and writer, he tackled the project, which he called “the hardest script I ever wrote,” with a tremendous amount of love, trust and belief that the adaptation could soar as the stage production had.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
