The AARP Movies for Grown Up Awards are being handed out right in Hollywood.

It’s the 18th annual edition. I’d like to say AARP is for old people, but everyone is old now. Bruce Springsteen’s been on the cover of their magazine. These awards reflect general sentiment in Tinsel Town.

So far “Roma” has won Best Foreign Film. Richard E. Grant won Best Supporting Actor for “Can You Ever Forgive Me?”

Spike Lee was named Best Director for “Blackkklansman.”

My insiders say “Green Book” will win Best Picture. Its star, Viggo Mortensen should win Best Actor. Glenn Close is a lock for Best Actress. Let’s see if they’re right.

Keep refreshing.
