oh boy
I recently watched "no country for old men" by the coen brothers. It is by far one of the best movies I have seen in a long long time and as usual it has grown on me over time. Now I sit here all jazzed up about wanting to be writing and getting behind the camera again.
It's been a long time and I kinda miss it.
Well one script is ready to go and has been that way for quite a while. Maybe I will open it up here and see what you guys think ...

oscars
I thought the oscars were pretty predictable this year - and although I liked The Departed - I still would have voted for Babel over Departed. It sems that the "academy" decided it was time to scorsese to finally win. It almost seems like an award for his career rather than this particular film.
Not that I am not a Scorsese fan. I am.
But departed over babel. No.
Ellen was actually pretty funny - although not knowing where Penelope Cruz is from was a little embarassing. She did appologize. And the announcer when refering to Infernal Affairs said that film was from Japan - in a year that supposedly was so international - these were two high profile mistakes on a show that a lot of people were watching.
And what's with Gore - man. I thought there was a little "too much" of him on the show. ANd if food is energy. He might want to think of energy conservation of another kind as well.
Jenifer Hudson over Rinko Kikuchi. No way.
Helen Miren winning was predictable. Although I thought Judi Dench in Notes was more standout. Def darker. Juicier.
Wil Farrel and gang were hilarious. :)

what up?
long time. new year. been awfully bz. no kidding. been up today since 3am. had to come to work early. now it's 8:30am. feeling a little sleepy. no kidding.
ha ha.
back soon w/ my own picks for top hindi and english films of 2006. too tired to think right now.
my favorite film though has to be Babel. And for all those who call it "pretentious" - perhaps it is you who is acting all "high and mighty".
and my fav hindi movie last year had to be "Gangster". superb acting and a fantastic story and great music.
