YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING.

I cannot believe that The Shape of Water won any awards, much less best picture. This absurd fairy
tale of a dumb (not speaking) girl falling in love with a aquatic creature was ridiculous. The film was filled with illogical sequences, like a bedroom filled to the ceiling with water and none leaking out. The villain of the piece was so over the top as to be laughable and one could see her closeted father
soon to make a pass at a counter server a mile away. Basically this was a ridiculous sequel to the black and white 1954  B picture The Creature from the Black Lagoon. I wisely stopped watching the Academy Awards years ago when it started recognizing nonsense like this and last year's laughable
La La Land. If anyone who reads this sees this film and loves it, I would truly like to know why.
