Oscar Poll: Best Movie


The LA Times is live blogging the Oscars. Best Movie is supposed to be a wrap up for Slum Dog Millionaire. What ever happened to the days of suspense and surprise?




And now for something completely different - a movie about women. Yesterday, Melissa Leo won best female lead in Frozen River (with writer/director Courtney Hunt!) at the Independent Spirit Awards. True to tradition, the best movie award went to a movie about a brother, The Wrestler.
