After a year of absence, I decided to start writing on this blong. So I have to ask you for another time to excuse me for the level of my english. I'm from Greece, but as movies concern people from all over the world, I want every single one on this planet understand what I'm talking about. So let's begin.. (So much to say)..
Well 2012 was quite a nice year. The only thing I have to remind is the Palme d' Or which was given to Michael Haneke for his movie Amour with Emanuelle Riva and Jean-luis Trintignant.
The reason I mentionned this film is that it is nominated for the Academy Awards for which I'm going to talk about. As far as Cannes festival is concerned, I haven't anything else to say, except the fact that Marion Cotillard and Emanuelle Riva did not take a prize for their acting which was quite a paradox. So, let's continue with the Academy Awards...
Let's begin with this year nominations.
Best motion picture of the year

Best motion picture of the year
Amour
Argo
Beasts of the Southern Wild
Django Unchained
Les miserables
Life of Pi
Lincoln
Zero Dark Thirty
Silver Linings Playbook
I guess that everybody knows about the rest nominations, so I have not to talk about them. But I want to mention the nominations for the Best Foreign Film
Here are the nominations
Amour (Austria)
Rebelle (Canada)
No (Chile)
En cogelig affaere (Denmark)
Kon-Tiki (Noraway)
I have to say that from the films above I've only seen Amour which was really great. Consequently, I can't presume who will win the award, but I believe that Haneke really deserves it (He is also nominated for 4 awards)
Also, another film that I have to talk about is Beasts of the southern wild, which really deserves watching it. The little girl Quvenzhane Wallis is stunning and the soundtrack is fantastic..
Last but not least, great is also the film of Ang Lee "The life of Pi" which is astonishing. Actually, in the middle of the film, I wanted to leave, because I was too frightened. :)
Stay here for further information.. Good to see you again!
