"Point bein', even in the contest between man and steer, the issue's not certain."
Hey all, been a long time since we've had a minute to talk face-to-face without the formal restrictions of a review format, hasn't it? How are you? I am well. It's looking increasingly likely that I'm *gasp* going to actually graduate in May (hey, one year late ain't bad). However, coming with that territory, my class schedule has been kind of crazy. While it's not all-consuming, I was sort-of forced to register for some required-to-graduate classes that fell on times where screenings generally happen. While I've still been able to attend most of them, the occasional problem has been posed; this past week alone, I missed the screenings for "City of Men," "The Signal" and "Vantage Point." So I apologize I occasionally won't have reviews up for films you may want to see; I, myself, was particularly anticipating "The Signal." This weekend, I headed home to New York and caught a couple shows (for those who care, "Sunday in the Park with George," "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" and "The 39 Steps"), so I still haven't caught up with "Vantage" or "Signal."
Also, I paid my hard-earned cash last week to see "Step Up 2 the Streets"-- another one I missed the screening for-- and was, frankly, astonished at how not-terrible it was. I did not like the first one, at all, and expected nothing from this one, and was pleasantly surprised. Granted, if someone just asked "hey, what's a good movie I should go see?," I couldn't in good conscience recommend "Step Up 2 the Streets." It's by-the-numbers, formulaic, and doesn't offer enough entertainment value for me to genuinely recommend. it. However, if someone experienced a modicum of enjoyment while watching the first "Step Up," there's no reason why they shouldn't see this one. It's quicker, more entertaining, less condescending, the leading actors were less wooden (and more purty to look at), and the movie delivers everything the first one did, only to a greater extent. I kind of jibed with the formula elements, and the dance numbers were surprisingly fun. It ain't quite a good movie, but it's significantly less of a slog than you might expect.
But most importantly of all-- and I regret having to make this segue from an analysis of "Step Up 2 the Streets"-- the Oscars are tonight. This was an extremely exciting awards season, resulting in the two true masterpieces of 2007 leading the pack for nominations, something that never happens. I'm, for one, sad to see it come to a close, but will be watching Sunday night with a rare giddiness. Here are my thoughts on who's going to, and who deserves to, win (I've omitted Best Foreign Language Film and Best Documentary Short Subject, since I've seen none of the nominees):
BEST PICTURE
Like everyone else, I'm having a tough time envisioning a scenario in which "No Country" does not win the big prize, and that's the way it should be. It IS the best film of the year, and while yes, Oscar properly honoring such a distinction would be odd, this year it seems especially likely. The film has earned all around guild support (except for those pesky editors) and seems to have found itself in virtually everyone's favor. Almost all the prognosticators, even those with a tendency to rabble-rouse, seem to agree on this, and I'm content with the universal consensus. Now, if, if, if, if the two masterpieces ("No Country for Old Men" and "There Will Be Blood") can NOT win, the inheritor of the throne I think I'd most be able to deal with is "Michael Clayton." Sure, it's nothing particularly special, but it is exceptionally well-crafted, features at least two marvelous performances, and elevates the conventional genre to which it belongs. While I think I actually do like "Juno" better, the thought of it winning the Oscar for Best Picture just makes me angry. Actually angry, not just "grrr, that would suck." I can't really explain why, I guess the backlash has settled in for me, like it has for many others. Or maybe I just shudder at a movie with the line "Geez banana, shut yer friggin' gob!" winning over two masterworks of cinema. Could be either one.
I don't really want to think about the "Atonement" factor, but I really don't need to, as it's just lucky to be here. Personally, as much as I love it, I think "There Will Be Blood" has the least chance of winning things out of all the nominated films. I think many people find it off-putting, and I believe the Academy only nominated it to cave in to flavor-of-the-month aficionado/critical consensus. Also, I think its fanbase falls within the same group of "No Country," and any voters that may feel inclined to go for "Blood" will probably go for the Coens instead. That said, if there is an alternate winner I can be happy about it's "Blood." And industry extraordinaire Kris Tapley has predicted it as the only potential roadblock to "No Country's" triumph. While I would be truly elated if I heard "And the Oscar goes to... There Will Be Blood," I doubt it's going to happen.
