  If I could call back All those days of yesteryear I would never grow old And I’d never be poor But darlin, those days are gone. Stop dreaming And live on in the future But darling, don’t look back And so it was with this that the 2011 Oscar race …

- Giving Props — When Being so Wrong is Being So Right
  25 Jan 2012
  
  Major props must go out to Anne Thompson for sticking hard to Tree of Life and never wavering. Thompson knew that the passionate support for the film (boomer nostalgia cum familial masterpiece) would drive it over when it was all about the number one votes. My biggest mistake was assuming …

  Back in 1999, when Oscarwatch.com first began, the highest of priorities was to correctly predict the Oscar race. There was only one other site, for the most part, that predicted the Oscars – Tom O’Neil’s GoldDerby.com. Tom’s site collected mostly film critics who lined up to give their Oscar …

- The Descendants Poised to Upset in Best Picture?
  20 Jan 2012
  
  There are few movies that feel like they could give The Artist some heat: Hugo and The Descendants. Perhaps, as many a Tweeter will tell you, “it’s been The Artist since Cannes.” And okay, fine. Maybe. What makes The Artist such a threat? It is loved by many, hated by …

- The State of the Race: Of Bridesmaids and Dragon Tattoos – Year of the Woman or Just Another Year?
  16 Jan 2012
  
  It was hard not to notice Robin Wright at the Critics Choice awards, striding out onto the stage with her still impossibly youthful legs, and announcing that 2011 was the Year of the Woman. She referenced Bridesmaids and Dragon Tattoos, probably because she couldn’t say housemaids. Either way, …

- The State of the Race: DGA Fallout – And Yeah, David Fincher
  10 Jan 2012
  
  It’s been a funny year for Oscar movies. The trial separation between critics and the industry has widened to a full blown divorce. The Artist and Moneyball are heading down the track to Oscar’s Best Picture with the most outstanding response from critics. Decent reviews have befallen most of the …

  As I re-watched Avatar last night, or tried to, I was thinking about the future of cinema. I was thinking about how hard it is to sell dramas now to the general public. I was thinking about the Academy, and how difficult it must be for them to evolve out …

  Men Who Hate Women. That’s what Stieg Larsson called his book, which then became The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. To know this story is to know Larsson. If you forget about him, the key to this story is lost. The story is about men who hate women and the …

- Trouble in Mind – Diving Down Deep with Best Actress
  30 Dec 2011
  
  Three of the year’s strongest female performances threaten convention, the one that says females are usually cast as supporting, loving, noble characters who give of themselves in the service of the male lead. It’s not always the case, especially not so in the Best Actress race; what better way …
