Less than a week to Oscars, three Oscar nominated films release in India on February 24. Here's the list of the films that should not be missed by any film-enthusiast:
The Artist
A silent-film actor (Jean Dujardin) is threatened by the advent of talking pictures. Weary of fading away from the spotlight, he engages himself with a rising starlet (Bérénice Bejo). What is to happen to the artist?
Bagging 6 BAFTA & 3 Golden Globes, The Artist has 10 Academy nominations and has already shot to #118 in IMDB Top 250. A guaranteed entertainment, The Artist should not be missed at all.
Moneyball
A powerful star-cast that comprises of the-super-brilliant Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill & the-super-awesome Philip Seymour Hoffman, Moneyball is another major Academy nominated release of February. Anticipate a baseball flick with much more than just baseball. A low budgeted team's manager (Brad Pitt) alongwith a Yale grad (Jonah Hill) finds a statistical approach to pick the team which his manger (Philip S Hoffman) is not happy with. Does he and his team find what are they really worth?
My Week with Marilyn
The blonde bombshell comes back on the big screen. Michelle Williams brings you the boldness that was Marilyn Monroe. Nominated for best actress, Michelle is convincing in the film promotions itself. Marilyn & her struggle with fame, is seen through a young film student Colin (Eddie Redmayne) who is intrigued by her while Sir Laurence Olivier (Kenneth Branagh) is struggling with her demands. How does this week go?
Carnage
Although not nominated for Oscars, Carnage is still a must watch for the return of Roman Polanski. A lighthearted comedy of an evening on the backdrop of civilized manners, Carnage has peculiar characters in a battle of wits. Two couples (Jodie Foster & John C. Reilly, Kate Winslet & Christoph Waltz) try to settle their son's fight & end up in a fight themselves. Watch how manners to no-manners tickles your funny bone.

hello Ani!
ReplyDeletethank you for doing this post on the movies not-to-be-missed this feb! i'm so relieved that this year most of the oscar nominated films have released in india before the oscar ceremony. unlike last year when The King's Speech n Black Swan came much after the awards!
i'm quite looking forward to watching The Artist as i have never seen a b/w film on the big screen. n i have never seen a Roman Polanski film, so Carnage seems like a good one to go for.
looking forward to your future posts!:D!
