As with every winter I am very excited to be dashing to the Capawock theater on Main St., Vineyard Haven, the new Martha’s Vineyard Film Center in Tisbury Market Place, and Entertainment Cinemas in Edgartown to catch all the Oscar nominations before the big night Sunday!
I have to admit however I am a bit melancholy when I sit watching the big screen and no longer hear the rattle of film threading through the projector because the digital film distributors are taking over. Will I ever again see the bulb burn a whole through celluloid?? Will I ever again see a bad transition from reel one to reel two?? Cinema Paradiso, where have you gone?!
Alas technology gets in the way of the magic of the venue. However it does not get in the way of the beauty of the film image. And this year that is proven with visual gems like Beasts of the Southern Wild and Lincoln.
Besides Oscar season, I find this winter exciting because I am showing and selling some stellar Martha’s Vineyard real estate! 2012 sales were up all year – the 4th quarter was through the roof! And predictions indicate that 2013 should be just as robust. The buyers are ready, willing, and able to pay Vineyard prices and realize their dream, and motivated sellers are able to move on to the next chapter of their lives.
So in honor of an exciting winter here on the gorgeous island of Martha’s Vineyard, below are my choices for the Best Martha’s Vineyard Properties currently for sale as well as my 2013 Oscar Picks.
