Oscar Season

I think this is the first time in the history of the Oscar's that yours truly has seen 3 out of 5 Best Picture nominations. And...and...I was already planning to see the other two anyway...Munich and Good Evening and Good Night. I suppose one could chalk this up to an increase in my movie watching...but I don't think that's it. I think it's because for the first time in quite sometime the Oscars actually nominated some fine, fine cinema.

Crash...good
Capote...good Philip Seymour Hoffman...very good
Brokeback Mountain...very good

Funny, 'cause I've only seen one, Crash. I really wanted (and still want) to see Capote, Munich, and Good Night and Good Luck -- it just hasn't happened. I think I'm seeing Brokeback this weekend...
