I finally caught up with the rest of the world.



I downloaded Michael Clayton about a month ago and just hadn't gotten around to watching it (not that I don't constantly download things and never watch them). So I finally sat down with it tonight and I really enjoyed it. I don't really understand why Tilda Swinton won an academy award for her role. She was only in the film for maybe ten or fifteen minutes tops. I don't really get it. She was alright, I suppose, but I don't really think it was oscar worthy. I haven't seen American Gangster yet (it's also been sitting on my hard-drive for months), but I'm sure Ruby Dee was much better in that.

I was pretty upset that pseudo-smart-kid-stinkfest Juno won best screenplay instead of Lars and the Real Girl. Ryan Gossling should have been nominated for Best Actor, because he was fucking amazing in that movie. He's pretty much the only actor my age that I like. I think he's great. I guess Matt Damon sort of counts, but he's ten years older than I am.
