Cliffs Notes II
Movies from 2001 better than any of the Best Picture nominees, except for LOTR:
Series 7
Mulholland Drive
Vanilla Sky
Ghost World
Princess and the Warrior
The Royal Tenenbaums
I guess this wasn’t such a bad year for movies after all. Too bad the Academy can’t see beyond the standard homogenized Hollywood fare (again, except for LOTR, the exception that proves the rule).
You should watch Amelie, it’s a French Foreign Film, I think you would like it because it looks as though we have the same taste in movies.
