lijahloverI went and watched the 7:30 showing of The King's Speech and was blown away by how brilliant it was. Colin and Helena were brilliant. I laughed many times and it had me close to tears as well. It moved me and the acting was so powerful and just perfect. Yes it deserved best Actor and Picture. I think it won best Director as well but not positive about that.
I felt like clapping when it was over and could have since I was the only one in the theater. This is one movie that is worth the praise and they would have robbed Colin if he didn't get an Oscar for his performance but they have robbed many before him and will continue to do so. I can see buying this and watching it over again.

Date: 2011-03-04 12:42 pm (UTC)King's Speech was a nice movie, but there were movies I liked a lot better this year like Black Swan, The Fighter, Inception and 127 Hours. And it's still a mystery to me why King's Speech won best director and I'm really not alone with this opinion. There was nothing special about this tv style directing. I'm not saying TV style it bad, on the contrary, and Tom Hooper is a tv director after all, but it's in no way Oscar worthy. But the academy loves movies like this, so I don't think they'll ever honor geniuses like Chris Nolan or David Fincher.
And it was refreshing to see Helena Bonham Carter in a non weirdo strange Tim Burton movie role for a change.
/little Oscar rant. lol

Date: 2011-03-04 05:34 pm (UTC)Yes The Academy lives for moviesw like this :)
I adore Helena but it is lovely to see her in a normal role like you said for a change.
Feel free to rant about Oscar I have MANY years LOL!
