The countdown begins for this year’s Oscars. I have had the chance to see almost all of the Best Picture nominees this year, with the exception of Amour. I have already written my review of “Life of Pi,”which if anyone desired to read it could scroll down through previous posts. I will attempt to get a short summary of the films this year as I did last year.
Something new I wanted to do this year was recognize two young actors whose performances stood out.
The first is Elizabeth Olsen.
Sister of the famous Olsen twins, Elizabeth starred in the film “Liberal Arts”. I mistook her for Maggie Gyllenhall when I first saw her.
The second film I watched with her this year was “Peace, Love and Misunderstanding”. I thought her presence in both of these films made them stand out. I think she has a tremendous future and look forward to seeing her star rise.
The second actor that seemed to be ubiquitous in all of the films I loved this year was Mark Duplass.
“Safety not Guaranteed,” with Aubrey Plaza, was a creative, independent film that won over most people that watched it. “Your sister’s sister” was one of my favorite films I watched this year.
It starred Emily Blunt and Rosemarie Dewitt. And lastly, he made an appearance in “Zero Dark Thirty”. How is that for the trifecta?
