just the ten of us

The Academy just announced that there will be ten nominees for Best Picture instead of five. This hasn't happened since circa 1939: the Golden Age of Hollywood. Hopefully this means foreign and independent films will get some more notice.

Here are my choices from last year's race:

Frost/Nixon
Frozen River
Happy Go Lucky
Milk
Rachel Getting Married
The Reader
Waltz with Bashir
The Visitor
Wendy and Lucy
The Wrestler

What are yours?

  1. Wall-E, for sure.

    Also, The Wrestler should have won, but alas . . . alas . . .
