Not Babel. So, I haven’t actually seen it yet, but the general feeling seems to be it was robbed on the weekend. Other feelings seem to involve the Oscar nod going to Scorsese because they’d skipped him five times in the past. Pan’s Labyrinth walked away with some good wins which was nice and the multicultural nominations didn’t all go unrewarded. I’d like to be able to rant on quality of films but since the only one I’ve seen is Little Miss Sunshine, which is definitely excellent, I can’t.
Languages and cultural differences explored
I can strongly recommend you to watch ‘Blood Diamond’. There, DiCaprio speaks with South African English accent. It is also possible to hear local language in that film. The subject is pretty cool and heartfelting too. I think i should blog about it.
