The curious of the Awards Oscar 2010

The delivery of 82 edition of the Awards Oscar in Kodak Theatre of Los Angeles, this night on Sunday, the 7th of March, differs of previous years, for some innovations worth being mentioned. For example, as for the only record, the actress Meryl Streep reaches the sixteenth nomination for his interpretation in “Julie and Julia”. Or the possibility of actor Jeff Bridges, who does not have in his credit an Oscar, of finally be doing of the statuette gilded by “Crazy Heart“. His rivals as better actor also, George Clooney, for Up in the Air. Colin Firth, for A Single Man. Morgan Freeman, for Invictus. Jeremy Renner, for The Hurt Locker. There attracts attention that thing about the ex-wife of James Cameron, Kathryn Bigelow, and with a lot of possibilities of winning so like him thanks to the ticket-clerk “Incarnation“, she is nominated in the category of better direction by the movie “The Hurt Locker”. And what does not get lost of sight, which has caused polemic even, is that this year, and it is the first time that is done, there are not going to compete 5 but 10 movies. The following full-lenght films are nominated:

1. Incarnation. With two golden Balloons in his credit (Better Movie and the Better Director), as well as the record of movie more popular that snatched Titanic, this science fiction fantasy with ecological message has the ingredients of a winner. The governing Canadian James Cameron - the one who also won with Titanic in 1998 — might be proclaimed “a king of the world” again and take the last statuette of the night. He reads here the critique.
2. Up In The Air. 2009 was a difficult year, with increasing numbers of unemployment. To have done a comedy on a type with the not enviable at all work of personnel to dismiss was an adventurousness of the director Jason Reitman, although with the presence of George Clooney and the ingenuity of the script, the result was refreshing and worth of this fully deserved nomination. He reads here the critique.
3. Inglourious Basterds. The movie into which Quentin Tarantino changes the history of the Second World war so that Hitler and the dome of the Third Reich receive his hand deserts of a squadron anti-Nazi was the big winner in the awards SAG and it was nominated to the golden Balloons and to the awards BAFTA, between many others. It is outlined like a force candidate in the Oscars. He reads here the critique.
4. Precious: New Based on the Push by Sapphire. A real revelation - especially in the performances - turned out to be this drama on an adolescent with all the possible disadvantages in his life: father rapist, excessive mother, obesity, social and racial alienation, with a corollary of hope and victory on the adversity. Since it indexes, cost his nominations to the golden Balloon and to the BAFTA. He reads here the critique.
5. District 9. If of revelations it talks each other, this allegory of the system of racial segregation in South Africa applied to aliens, she was one of the most out-standing and most unexpected of the year, with his miscellany of drama, pseudo-documentary, horror and science fiction with a strange accent. Some nominations do honor to his merits, although the being with unknown actors, might have left a foreign movie relegated easily by the competition. He reads the critique here.
6. The Blind Side. A drama on the emergence of a star of the American soccer of a very humble origin: an African American adolescent without hearth, without real friends, obese, that was received by a white family accommodated to instances of the mother of one of his compañeritos in the school. Sandra Bullock shines like Leigh Anne Tuohy, the woman who rescued Michael Oher of an uncertain life and gained a golden Balloon, in addition to being nominated also to an Oscar like better actress. He reads here the critique.
7. The Hurt Locker. This tape realizes of the horror of the war in Iraq during 2004 - and that does not end yet completely - from the point of view of a bomb bomb-disposal officer. It was directed by Kathryn Bigelow and led by Jeremy Renner, it nominated to three golden Balloons and to several awards more, especially in the BAFTA. He reads here the critique.
8. An Education. An excellent British movie that it narrates awakening romantic and sexual of student of secondary that is allowed to seduce by a man major who dazzles it, but it conceals more than one uncomfortable detail. Also the protagonist is nominated like better actress, Carey Mulligan (who was nominated to the golden Balloon), the same as the script. Where it seems that it could triumph with the awards it is in the Bafta, the British Oscar. It has logic. He reads here the critique.
9. Up. Other movies benefited with the increase of the nominations to Better Movie are the animated ones, like Up, that also she is the big favorite for the Oscar to the Best Cartoon. The history of an elder who flies hanging his house to an enormous balloons bunch and travels up to Venezuela with a small stowaway gained two golden Balloons and it is nominated to the BAFTA, without counting other awards and nominations. He reads here the critique.
10. To Serious Man. Like that the brothers Ethan and Joel Coen deserve a lugarcito in this list, in spite of having done his most personal movie up to the date: a comedy on the personal and professional ordeals of a modern Jew in an American suburb. Seriously, this movie has had several awards and nominations, even for the golden Balloon and the BAFTA. He reads here the critique.
