Mystic River was almost agonizingly somber. A sad story and a sad movie. I thought it was pretty good, but it's a hard movie to watch again and again, just like Saving Private Ryan, another depressing movie. |
Yup, I agree with you. I would not want to watch it over and over again..it's too depressing. However, the actors in Mystic River are bloody good which I think it will be a tight competition between Watanabe and Robbins. Still, I hope Watanabe will win the race (fingers crossed).

You bought Twilight Samurai...wow..I am about to order that online..Pls tell me how it turns out if you've watched it, before I really decide to buy it (I'm currently trying to make a collection of samurai film).
Perhaps I should open a thread about those Samurai and other martial arts movie...has anybody ever make thread about them, if not I shall make it.

from the previous post by Akakage
Not only for the BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR, The Last Samurai is also nominated for BEST ART DIRECTION, BEST COSTUME DESIGN, and BEST SOUND
Congrats Watanabe san! , After watching the film, I really thought that the title 'Last Samurai' actually refers to Katsumoto and his men.... not Algren.
About The Twilight Samurai, it's not a good film, it's.......... a GREAT film !. It deserves all the awards it's nominated upon.
...... and somehow reminds me of Rurouni Kenshin : Meiji Kenkaku Romantan....

Hmm, I don't recall a thread about Samurai/Martial Arts films... You might try searching first, though.

Best supporting actor
Alec Baldwin - The Cooler
Benicio Del Toro - 21 Grams
Djimon Hounsou - In America
Tim Robbins - Mystic River
Ken Watanabe - The Last Samurai
This is the list for the supporting actors , and i really hate alec Baldwin that can't act who is benicio del toro ? and that djimon hounsou? and i mean come on tim robbins! Horrible, I know that Ken Watanabe was the best actor. WEll lets hope for the best. The other actors didn't do good in the other movies my opinon..

To be totally fair, Benicio del Toro already has an Academy Award for Traffic, and I think Djimon Hounsou has been nominated as well... But I agree with you that I'd love to see Watanabe-san win the Oscar...

What surprises me is that someone would go the theater and pay to see the movie so many times... Here in the U.S. that total cost would be about $250-$300, based on our ticket prices...
I'd wait until it came out on DVD and buy it for $20 and watch it until I was blue in the face...
