This just in: Oscar noms

OF COURSE, currently living in Hong Kong, I have hardly had the opportunity to see any of the Oscar-nominated movies. Except of course I've seen the Dark Knight. And Benjamin Button arrived yesterday in theaters, but other than that... which is depressing to me. The fact that I am BEHIND in movies is depressing to me. And the fact that I find that depressing is depressing to me. I am a troubled girl.

But let me just say... Penelope Cruz! I must say that my favorite movie of the year is a tie between Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Dark Knight and Iron Man. Actually I hardly liked any movies this whole year and didn't watch very many either, so these three are my favorites but compared to last year's favorites the degree to which I like these pales in comparison.

But back to Penelope Cruz. She is so great in VCB! I'm guessing she's not going to win, just because I'm sure the films she's up against, which I haven't seen, are major award types. But I heart VCB and Penelope Cruz in it.
