Lawrenceville is a Great Place to Catch Academy Award-Nominated Films

It's not too late to see movies nominated for an Oscar for Best Picture.

If you want to catch an Oscar Best Picture nominee before this Sunday's awards show, time is running out. But Lawrenceville and nearby towns have plenty of screen options for your choosing. 

If you want to see "Amour" (nominated for both best picture and best foreign film), or "Beasts of the Southern Wild" (with 9-year-old Quvenzhane Wallis a best actress nominee), you're going to have to pay a little extra.
