By now you all know that Kathryn Bigelow and The Hurt Locker were the big winners at the Oscars, and there were no real surprises in any of the major acting categories.
So let’s take a look at some of the lesser known victors of the night!
Using state-of-the-art equipment, a group of activists infiltrate a cove near Taijii, Japan to expose both a shocking instance of animal abuse and a serious threat to human health.
“This film transcends its environmental core to take a broad look at the myopic reality of the Taiji dolphin hunt. Yes, it is a biased depiction, but rather than focus all of its energy on the emotional slaughter the film chooses to examine personal, ecological, political, medical, and economic issues that arise from the killing and consumption of dolphins. In the end, the antagonists seem misguided rather than villainous, and the film’s suggestions reasonable rather than radical.” – Thaklos
A retired lawyer (Ricardo Darín) wants to write a novel about a crime he tried to solve thirty years earlier: a woman was raped and murdered. When the court decided to close the case for lack of evidence, he and his sidekick (Guillermo Francella) relay on one loose clue: a man looking at the victim, in an old photograph.
“A film full of surprises. Although it is full of extremely silly plot turns, it’s such a well crafted film that you can easily avoid nitpicking it. It uses a free-form narrative that departs from the structure of typical thriller, focusing on the moral dilemma over the crime. Another extraordinary surprise was Francella: although I thought he already sold his soul to Satan years ago, performing in comedies so low they reach the fiery pits of Hell, here he delivers a fantastic performance.” – KGB
