I got the joke Oscar.
Some people are just not on the same wavelength...
Once again I find myself at a loss for the Oscars.
Where did the year go?
By just going on my cinema radar, I feel
There Will Be Blood will collect some trophies.
No Country For Old Men is a textbook "GREAT FILM", but man, I wasn't moved nary an inch while watching it.
How is this possible with a Coen Brothers film?
I felt like my hand was being held...for what?
It just seemed like an exercise to me.
Just a chance for the brothers and Roger Deakins and Jones and Bardem to exercise their talents.
I suppose there's no fault in that but I must confess I'm wondering why this particular story was the one they felt t hey had to film now.
The craft is undeniably there- no one's contesting the absolute precision the Coen's always deliver, it's just, where's the weenie?
Where's the weenie, the kill, Joker, the kill!
Juno I want to see because of it's come-out-of-nowhere charm, but I'm leery of this type of story to be honest.
Atonement sounds syrupy, but I can't really judge.
Everybody's saying it's award-worthy, so I'll wait until I see it.
I'm happy for Julie Christie and Sarah Polley.
You go girls!
