No Oscar for Villeneuve
Incendies lost for Best Foreign Language Film but at least we got nominated...
It's a shame that this film didn't win, because it's one of the best films I've ever seen. I remember being very tired after watching it because it was so emotionally engaging. The actors gave perfect performances and the director handled the material brilliantly.
This is true. Considering how huge the oscars are, I'd say congrats to the Canadian film that made it!!
ReplyDeleteNot to mention they adapted the film from "Scorched" a play actually written in english.
