Every week I have a movie obsession, during the summer I was going crazy over musicals (i.e. Rent, The Producers, Romance & Cigarettes). Since that phase is over....
#1 -
Brokeback Mountain: This week's obsession (last week Walk the Line), I just hope I get to see it... Surefire Oscar noms. I hope Ang Lee (director) gets the Oscar and of course the career-making performances from Heath and Jake (man has this been a year for them), and the less obvious Michelle Willams.
#2 -
Syriana: The All-star cast and complex screenplay really draws me in.
#3 -
Memoirs of a Geisha: I have yet to read the book
, and will be pretty pre-occupied. Even though I won't watch the movie I'm still going nuts over it. Though, I do have to say my first reaction to the trailer was disappointing, it doesn't have the full effect without a big screen. And OMG: Oprah rooting for Memoirs
Also... Bee Season, The Family Stone, Match Point
And for my comedic side:
- Fun With Dick and Jane: Even with the reported reshoots and problems, I am really excited about this movie. ----->
