Jeremy White joins me to discuss Argo, the winner of Best Picture at this year’s Academy Awards. We both enjoyed it but can’t conceive of it as the best possible candidate.
Note: If you haven’t seen Argo and plan to, this podcast contains spoilers. We WILL ruin the movie for you– so don’t listen. You’ve been warned.
@BradRiter @jeremywgr U can’t conceive y it won? Let me explain…Lincoln boring, done b4 & about legislation rather than his life.
@BradRiter @jeremywgr 0 Dark 30 & Django: Too controversial to win. Silver linings was just boring & slow. Beasts was too amateur.
@BradRiter @jeremywgr Life of Pi was lacking, no suspense cuz u knew he survived from the very beginning and it’s a fantasized Castaway.
@BradRiter @jeremywgr Les Mis, it’s an awful movie with one good performance and nonstop musical. Amour difficult to watch & foreign.
@BradRiter @jeremywgr I saw these all in the theatre & Argo (unlike others) had people edge of their seat the whole time, laughing & crying.
