Don't think so.

I can't even that of that many that were nominated for "Best film" instead of "Best foreign film"... cries and whispers comes to mind..

maybe there's something within the academy rules stating best film has to be english language. I just took a look through the winners and nominations for the sixties and saw no mention of any movies by Godard, Fellini, Antonioni or Bergman in ther 'best film' category, so I'm guessing it has to be. It does cheapen the award somewhat though. Was Tom Jones really a better movie than 8 1/2?

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and Life is Beautiful also come to mind but neither won the best picture Oscar both deserved it. CTHD lost to Gladiator
and LIB lost to Shakespeare in Love. Both good but inferior imo.

thank you.

he's blowing my mind.

yeah he rules balls

Shutter Island

Finders Keepers, Lovers Weepers. 3/10. For me this is Russ Meyer's worst film.

Let's see here...
Jumanji
The Breakfast Club
The Mighty Ducks
D2: The Mighty Ducks
Pineapple Express
The Replacements

Yeah, it's been a shitty week at home with nothing to do.

Any good?

I usually enjoy all of those except Pineapple Epxress which I haven't bothered with.

My last two have been: The Great Muppet Caper, Muppets Take Manhattan

Hmm, let's see...









I liked all of them quite a lot.

Ah the great Russ Myers, Vixen being the first X rated movie my friends and I got into at the ripe old age of 14. I can't count how many nights I went to sleep thanks to a Cynthia Meyers rub-out.....

last Meyers for a while I think:



Lorna. 7/10. Great gothic Meyer.



Mudhoney. 7/10. Another great bit of gothic Meyer.

The Fourth Kind -- actually kind of creepy.

Zoolander. I fuckin' love that movie.

danielcarlson, you have excellent tastes
