Don't you mean The Departed beats out Letters from Iwo Jima? :)
ReplyDeleteThis year. The Reader instead of Revolutionary Road? Or Milk instead of Revolutionary Road??? I mean, don´t get me wrong - Milk is a great story with some great performances and deserves acclaim for the topic alone. But still - its more a TV movie than a cinematic event.
ReplyDeleteAs far as blunders from the past.....
