This year was certainly some kind of record of watching all the Best Picture nominees before the end of January, I mean even when the nominations were announced I only had Parasite left to see. Hopefully that is a good sign for the future and allowing better UK release dates for the awards buzz films. It can easily get frustrating at times and this year only one film out of the nine was a film I disliked intensely. I adore and love Jojo Rabbit, so much I have set a new cinema viewing record of five for that amazing film. With that I really liked and enjoyed the rest of the films. Which I guess is not bad at all and I feel that this years nominees are a lot stronger than last years! Just incase you haven't heard about these films enough lets take one final look at them before the Academy Awards take place on Sunday!
Ford v Ferrari (
Is an interesting enough formula one film, especially when I did not have any prior knowledge to the subject matter. Something that is essential in the storytelling to inform the viewer of the events which occurred. With impressive performances from both Christian Bale and Matt Damon which really carries the film at times, considering I enjoy watching both actors to see them in a film together was an added bonus really.In terms of actually winning Best Picture I would probably place this as the bottom choice out of the nine nominees. Even though it wasn't the film that I disliked. Review)
