Tomorrow night they announce the winners of the Academy Awards, and for the first time in a long time, I don't really think there is a movie up to being called Best Picture. The only one I haven't seen is Precious. So it might be the exception. Of all the nominated pictures I have seen, if I had to choose one, I'd go for Up In The Air. Great acting, interesting plot, well done all around. Second choice: An Education. Each of the others has something to recommend it, but none of them put enough of the pieces together to qualify as a Best Picture. |
