After the Oscars

Rating: 10/10 (26 February 2007)

Didn't Hollywood see the same film as I did. I mean, OK it got it's share in the prizes but.... they seem to be only scraps. The performances of Ariadna Gil and Sergio Lopez to name two are amongst the best I've seen in 2006. I know competition was tough but this film was certainly better than Babel,Letters from Iwo Jima and the Queen. Or was it simply because it was a foreign film;for which it didn't get anything either. Maybe it's because I'm a great fan of Del Toro's film's. Maybe it's because I like European or Asian or non Hollywood film's better. Well not all but almost all. My feeling,this film didn't get what it deserved. Some real Oscars. But heck THAT'S Hollywood FOR YA !!!!
