A few reasons why the upcoming "Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire" is a lock for a Best Picture Oscar nomination, not to mention a likely box office sleeper hit: 1. There are ten best picture slots open this year. It can't not get a nod after winning both the Sundance...

The list of 2009 Guggenheim Fellows ( press released here ) was released today and there were many filmmakers on the rise. Amongst my faves are Ramin Bahrani, Julia Loktev, and Kelly Reichardt... but I am sure that others would be on that list if I knew more of their work... which, hopefully, these grants...

I just got a note than Shawn Edwards and have Russ Simmons won Best TV Film Critic, the second year in the row the the pair have been honored as Best TV Film Critics.

Things have changed a lot over the years… There is a weird competition between journalists about who is going where and who is invited to what. Silly. But there is the ongoing “which ones are you going to” chatter, which was only overwhelmed this weekend by endless conversations about which ones are...

I'll be liveblogging the 81st Annual Academy Awards right here once the ceremony starts. In the meanwhile, though I'm feeling as lacking in Oscar predictive mojo as I've ever in my life, let's go ahead and put these out there anyway: Best picture: "Slumdog Millionaire." Director...

I don't want to spend too much time on this, but... All four acting slots that won BAFTA the last two years won Oscars. In both of those last two years, only one of the four slots was really a surprise of any kind... Tilda last year and Alan Arkin the year before. Huzzah - even though guessing the...

I was really struck by a quick reaction shot of David Fincher at BAFTA yesterday... his face seemed to say it all... "how did we become an also-ran?"... Thing is, Fincher and everyone at Paramount has been nothing but gracious as the year that was supposed to be theirs became the Year of the...

The Guardian is live-blogging the event from inside the theater. Oh, how I have live-blogging. It's funny... when I talk to people about Blu-ray BD-Live features, like IMing during a synced movie, they almost always get a vomitty look on their face. But for me, I consider that in that case, kids...
