6. I'll agree with her about one thing...

Edited on Tue Mar-14-06 12:18 PM by primate1

Fuck the Oscars.

Contrary to popular belief, the Oscars are not the best of the best. The true best films are often competely overlooked by the Oscars. The winner for best picture is never the ACTUAL best picture of the year.

Crash IS a really good film though, and it's really rare that I actually like a Best Picture winner.

And one last thing: I don't think the person who wrote the story on which the film is based is the most reliable judge as to whether the film deserves the Oscar. Might be a slight bias, there, I'm not sure.
