HOLLYWOOD, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – It’s that time of year when the best of the best are honored in glittering ceremonies during Hollywood’s biggest night — the Oscars.

To be held February 22 at the Dolby Theater, the 87th Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences annual awards will feature 8 of last year’s best  films vying for the top prize.

As per tradition, each of the nominated films will be featured in a one-minute clip throughout the evening’s program.  This year, there will be one exception.

One of the Best Picture nominees, “Boyhood” will be afforded a full 12 minutes of film clip.

The coming-of-age dramatic film written and directed by Richard Linklater depicts the adolescence of a young boy in Texas growing up with divorced parents.  It stars Patricia Arquette, Ellar Coltrane, Lorelei Linklater and Ethan Hawke.

The film was shot intermittently over the course of a 12-year period, from 2002 to 2014.

The Academy board of directors decided to give justice to the nominated film by allowing one minute per year that it was in the making.

Sounds fair.
