You know the drill and you know who SHE is, but now we can add the following. In the '00's, she was nominated for the first time for a movie directed by a woman. In it she had two love interests, one played by an American actor, the other by a Canadian. One of her costars was nominated for an Oscar...

I used my prerogative to choose not to see Knocked Up, but speaking about social hierarchy - isn't the whole idea of this movie, hence its title, that by getting pregnant the woman in it, since she doesn't have any real choice, somehow becomes damaged goods, her pitiful position downgrades her sign...

Count me in as one of the very few who are happy with Blanchet in the lead list. She was way too young, the movie was way too silly and so on, but technically, as a piece of acting, it was more than acceptable (not being an Australian, I'm free of the built in resentment towards her Precious Doll s...

For all the justified griping of the parochial mindset of the Foreign Film committed, I suppose it's worth noting that there's only one Western European nominee this year. And it's not France or Italy. Well, WE her just know that Israel IS a Western European country, accidentally stranded into a na...

My hint for picking up Israeli women: Tell them you went to a Catholic high school - it will make you seem very exotic. Or ask them to put on a Bettie Page wig -- women love that! :D Oy vey. You guys are, well, clueless. Israelis tend to be rather culture-centric. I fear the catholic stuff would be...

1985 is easily the worst Best Picture lineup of my lifetime. I've said before that I think Out of Africa is the only halfway decent movie in the lineup, and as a result, the only acceptable choice. But I only have one pass left, and it must be saved for an all-time great winner, not the least of th...

Whenever I'm obliged to order a stake in a restaurant, I want it to be well done, but since I know that rare is the right way to have it, I end up with medium. This place was established as a nice, upper market diner. Over the years it was hijacked by all those smarmy intellectuals who turned it in...

Oh Uri! Have you seen Dogville and Birth? Kidman can be a fantastic, compelling actress when given the right role. I really have no time for this, but since it's you… Kidman was perfectly suited for Von Treir's vision – her acting is the equivalent of the sets in that film – all she's capable off, ...
