The Final Nominee...

Today I finally saw the last of the Best Picture Nominees with a few days to spare before the big show.

Midnight in Paris

Woody Allen sends us on a trip to the Twilight Zone with the story of a writer who finds himself transported back to the 1920's each night as he wonders the streets Paris. Here we are treated to a who's who of writers, artists and musicians from Paris's "Golden Age". I thought this was an enchanting film with a great cast of characters. I'm not always a fan of Owen Wilson, but I enjoyed his performance here. Marion Cotillard is fabulous as always. After watching the last few nominees, it was a nice change of pace to watch something light hearted.



 
So that's it! I've now seen all of the Best Picture nominees. There were a few other movies that I would have liked to have seen for the acting performances (My Week With Marilyn and The Iron Lady), but those will have to wait.
