The only one I've seen is "Crash". It was a very good movie. It reminded me a lot of "Magnolia". It pieced together seemingly unconnected stories and wove them together into a statement about racism. It was a good movie, but it won't be one of those movies that stick with you in your psyche for the next thirty years. I am thinking of movies like "The Godfather" or "From Here to Eternity" or "The Wizard of Oz". I don't think we have any of those on the list this year. Of course, I haven't seen them, so what the hell am I talking about?
My money is on "Brokeback Mountain" to win easily. It's probably the best cow poke movie ever made.
Oh, I am a gay caballero,
I went to see a medico,
Going from Rio de Janeiro
Exceedingly fine medico............
