Bad Girl: War Kind (Oscar, Part-2)

Amlan thinks his friendship with school-girl Shelbye concerning their Oscar-night co-nomination will 'ornament' their (shared?) views on war's ongoing (social) knowing.

Amlan wondered now how to prepare for that culturally 'rich' Oscar-night in the American Homeland, preparing his Selfie-emotion in the off-chance that he'd win the coveted golden trophy for his Best Supporting Actor nomination for Bad Girl while his high-school friend girl (Shelbye), nominated herself for Bad Girl for Best Actress, could lose. Amlan knew he felt his portrayal as a confidant-friend (Taj) who offered great sanity-advice for Shelbye's troubled character (Danica) wasn't worth acknowledgement in comparison to why Danica was a cinema-iconic 'diplomat' character of Earthling (American) war-consciousness female knot (ok). Amlan (honestly) wanted Shelbye to win for her portrayal, but he wondered (honestly) what he'd think (now) if he won (instead)...Facebook-like!

AMLAN: If I win and you lose, Thanksgiving is my treat, on me, in Jersey.

SHELBYE: That's a super cool deal, Amlan my old friend (ok).

AMLAN: You were mighty in Bad Girl, Shelbye (ok).

SHELBYE: Hey, I told you, your Taj-portrait was sensitive and toned right (ok).

AMLAN: Damn...Oscars are so...human/social know!

FILM/STORY (Bad Girl) Excerpts:

TAJ (Amlan): You've snaked into the nuptial-bedrooms of multiple Afghan-vets!
DANICA (Shelbye): This post-9/11 Afghan War is simply a know-record for demons.

TAJ: Why are you one of the demons, Danica (damn)?
DANICA: Look, I told you, I had to explore the psyche...maybe it's experiment.
TAJ: I told you I'd rather you take some Oscar-trophy for an actress-rites!
DANICA: You're being too...Christian, fool.
TAJ: Hey, I'm only your psyche-listener.
DANICA: Why do you want me to be an actress (Oscar-night)?
TAJ: As a Christian, I've to say it's better than a home-wrecker of war-vets, angel.
DANICA: Sure (Facebook-like).
TAJ: Art's for medicine...and you're that know bad-girl of it (hmmm).
DANICA: Selfie-like.

Amlan had become somewhat fond of re-viewing scenes from Bad Girl at home, ironically liking the notion he'd be acknowledged for his nice portrait of a confidant-friend conversing deeply with troubled Danica (Shelbye's character); and he continued to foster that human/social 'think' that Shelbye's character should be that one recognized for TV/audiences with that mighty Oscar-night gold-trophy of language (hmmm). After all, Oscar-night had become...kaleidoscope.
