Below are our Most anticipated films of the Awards Season with commentary and trailers. Enjoy!
Sean:
5. The Artist
Ever since The Artist’s debut at the Cannes Film Festival it has won numerous accolades and has steam rolled it’s way into the Awards Season. Many are expecting the Academy to go for this in a big way, which would be slightly odd. It is, after all, a French film about Hollywood in the 1920’s, it has a no name lead star, it was filmed in black and white, and to top it off it is a silent film. But audiences have loved the film and it has managed to snag quite a few awards at various film festivals. The movie is also backed by the Weinstein brothers, so you can bet that they are going to push this as far as it can possibly go. Nobody plays the Oscar game better than the Weinstein’s. Out of every film opening this season, this is the one that people need to watch out for. I myself will be seeing the film this Thursday at an advance screening and will have my review out by the weekend. Trailer and the rest of our list after the jump...
