Lots to blog on and not enough time.
First a few scores before I catch up and get a chance to review them properly.
True Grit 4/5: Good but surprisingly straight forward for the Coen Brothers. There first truly mainstream film has lots of suspense and warmth but not many quirks.
Rabbit Hole 2/5: Moving but not much else
The Fighter 4/5: Solid if unspectacular sports drama.
Green Hornet 3/5: It has its charm and flaws but is an enjoyable two hours with surprisingly good use of 3D
The Ward 1/5: Awful John Carpenter Horror
Tonight is the Baftas, and here are my predictions for the winnders and in brackets who I think should actually win out of the nominees!
Best Film: THE KING’S SPEECH (What should win: Inception)
Best Actor: COLIN FIRTH (Who should win: JAMES FRANCO, although Ryan Gosling should easily take this but hasn’t been nominated)
Best Actress: NATALIE PORTMAN (Who should win: HAILEE STEINFELD –True Grit)
Best Supporting Actor: GEOFFREY RUSH (Who should win: ANDREW GARFIELD, although Outside chance that the late Pete Pothethwaite may get this in tribute to him)
Best Supporting Actress: AMY ADAMS (Who should win: Again not nominated but Chloe Moretz should get it for her performance in Kick-Ass)
Best Director: INCEPTION - Christopher Nolan (Who should win: Christopher Nolan)
Animated film: TOY STORY 3 (What should win: Toy Story 3)
Original Music: INCEPTION - Hans Zimmer (Who should win: Inception – Hans Zimmer)
