I have seen quite a few movies recently. I have not seen them all but i am pretty sure about a couple of bets on the upcoming oscars.
/> Slumdog Millionaire will take at least: best picture, best screenplay, best music
/> The Wrestler: will take best actor for Mickey Rourke who is simply unbelievable in this sad story. His best movie ever for sure
/> The reader: best actress would go to Kate Winslet.
/> Best foreign movie: Waltz with Bashir. ok i m biaised but i am pretty sure it will win, both for artistic and contextual reasons.
/> Actor in supporting role: without a doubt Heath Ledger for The Dark Knight.
/> Actress in supporting role: either Marisa Romei for The wrestler or Penelope Cruz for Vicky Cristina Barcelona (i never saw her like that). Probably Penelope
/> Animated movie Wall-E. This one is easy
Final answer in a couple of week (feb 22nd)
A few must see:
On a side note i recommend strongly Gran Torino by Clint Eastwood (not nominated but could have been), which is as always with this director, an elegant and touching movie, although it had all the ingredients to become a blockbuster action movie. I also recommend Frost/Nixon which is one of the best political movie i have seen for a while. Finally i recommend Gomorra, a stunning movie on the napolitan mafia. I wonder why this has not been nominated.
