Oscar

they say this year's Oscar was surrounded by psychopaths who got nominated. anyway it seems that each year there's a different theme for the winning pictures. there are definitely lots of romance in the 90s, but it's harmless once in a while to show blood thirsty thrillers. the genre isn't so much of a matter as long as the director, the actors and all the other working units know how to master the art of film.

this year things are making sense finally after several years of disappointment. Marion Cotillard got Best Actress in the Leading Role, Cate Blanchett in the supporting role, that guy who starred in No Country for Old Men got the male supporting role and Daniel Day Lewis got the best actor in the lead role. Now they're making some sense. at least this year they're having some sort of international appreciation for the films. seriously, that year with the Crash as the Best Picture, I don't know how they did it. that's like the worst among the 80 Best Pictures. wth. But anyway this year it showed that everyone is worthy of those little gold statues. because the coen brothers they're awesome! n' the actresses n' actors who got nominated for the leading roles are amazing people. many of them are character actors. they act.

but when you see that footage they had about the voting system... i mean c'mon... look at those people, some of them are not serious enough, and may I say they're kind of biased. There's certainly a winning formula. and some people are destined to get the award. some however, like Johnny Depp, Peter O' Toole, they got nominated for i dunno, say many times, and still couldn't get their share... what's the problem here... but anyway these people are still much loved by the audience. not taking an oscar doesn't mean those people can't act. they have substance, it's just that they're not lucky. that's all.
