Its Oscar week, the big night is this Sunday, and as I wrap up my Oscar nominee viewing I thought I would take a moment to draw attention to some of the movies Oscar snubbed this year.
In the Best Picture Category:
(500) Days of Summer: Easily better than Blind Side, which somehow stole an Oscar nod. Its not your typical romantic comedy, unique, with great editing and a smart script.
In the Best Actress Category:
Audrey Tatou inCoco Before Chanel
In the Best Screenplay Category:
Away We Go
In the Best Documentary Category:
Anvil! The Story of Anvil
In the Best Animation Category:
Ponyo
In the Best Foreign Film Category:
Sin Nombre
