"Best of"-s

As you could hear in the last week's news, the Oscar Awards were given. Luckily, the scriptwriters didn't boycott the event with their attempt for higher wages. :)

I could see that the prized films and actors/actresses were predictable; in other words there were not much surprises. I wouldn't like to enlist every awarded things (because that would be a little bit difficult), just a few of them.

So, the most Oscars went to the film No country for old men; best picture, best directing, best adapted screenplay and the best actor in supporting role (Javier Bardem).
The other prized films were:
The golden compass (best visual effects),
Ratatouille (best animated film),
Elisabeth: The Golden Age (best costume design),
Juno (best original screenplay) and
La vie en rose (best make-up and best actress in a leading role (Marion Cotillard)).

Seeing this list, I can say that these are very great films, although I haven't watched all of them. What I saw are Ratatouille and La vie en rose. They are related to France but this isn't the reason why I chose them. They have two different genres: animated movie and drama. I believe that everyone can enjoy these films, even if he/she doesn't like these two movie categories. But I can recommend these 2 films (and also the others listed above), because they deserved the awards for their fascinating features.

But recently I have heard from many people that they watch only those films, which were prized somehow. I think that the people can decide the quality of a film in many cases. So, if I have the chance, I'll see those films I haven't seen before among the enlisted ones. :))
