The ceremony may or may not happen, but the noms are out. Last year at this time, I'd seen only one of the Best Picture nominees. I'm doing a little better, with three under my belt:
Juno
No Country for Old Men
Atonement
Other films I've done this year that got nods:
Eastern Promises (go Viggo!)
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (Casey Affleck, in a fine supporting performance, as well as Cinematography)
Gone Baby Gone (Amy Ryan was really amazing)

Tell Me More About These "Ultra Condensed Movies" Of Which You Speak
I'm just a girl who likes movies, writing, and condensing things. You can contact me via the very efficient medium of electronic mail. I've also started the 140-character version of these on TWITTER for when you need a fix and I'm being lazy.

Having seen "There Will Be Blood" yesterday, it's worth seeing solely to do a condensed review of. Regardless of its cinematographical or thespianish merits, its structured such that it may have been written with this blog in mind.
Plus, movie line of the year: "I drink your milkshake! I drink it up!"
It totally makes sense it the movie, sort of.
