ty, ty!

Oh, wow, thanks! I graduated from college on Saturday, and between finishing the semester, picking a graduate school, and the like, I have had very little time to see movies, read up on this wonderful board, or even think about my birthday! But I've finally got a break now and am excited to get cau...

wow - it wasn't until i saw them all together just now that i realized what, with very little qualification needed, a truly crappy bunch they make.

I just wanted to add that it's significantly more expensive to execute someone than to keep him or her in prison for life.

Here's what I'd pick. Everyone's right; the Best Actress category is incredibly, profoundly weak this year. (note that my Joan Allen nomination is not the performance of hers that's making the most noise this year). Best Picture Capote Good Night and Good Luck My Summer of Love Syriana The Edukator...

So, I just sacrificed what should have been a grad school application fee for DeepDiscountDVD.com's Criterion Collection sale. Some that I've never seen for less than $35 are now $17. I picked up Cleo from 5 to 7, The 39 Steps, Rififi, Down by Law, and Inagaki's Samurai Trilogy.

The Squid and the Whale, no contest. I haven't seen Crash yet, but it wasn't nearly as universally acclaimed.

My Summer of Love 3. Capote 4. Syriana 5. Good Night and Good Luck 6. Breakfast on Pluto *** stars 7. Enron: The S...

Back in the country. Here's my woefully slow start for the year. **** stars *** ½ stars *** stars 1. Mondovino 2. Land of the Dead 3. My Summer of Love 4. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory 5. Last Days ** ½ stars 6. March of the Penguins 7. The Bad News Bears 8. Head On ** stars 9. Wedding Crashers...

see above.

I tried to wrap up all my 2004 movie viewing before I left for my study abroad - I updated my rankings in my post below (currently 82 entries). Here's my top ten (NOT taken straight from the first ten in the ranked list) and a few awards. The "just a good, odd little movie" award: Kitchen...

Update 1/30. Only one post-early fall release has managed to earn anything above 3 stars. **** stars 1. Before Sunset 2. Kill Bill Vol. 2 *** ½ stars 3. End of the Century: the Story of the Ramones 4. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind 5. Maria Full of Grace 6. Kitchen Stories 7. The Agronomist ...
