5 Oscar Contenders To Catch Before They Go…

where do you buy viagra src=”http://www.sydnerati.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/lastoscar-257×300.jpg” alt=”" width=”257″ height=”300″ />This time of year is always the where can buy viagra | buy cialis pills | levitra online pits when it comes to new films coming out; that dark middle-ages of the film calendar crammed between Awards Season and the first of the Summer Blockbusters in April/May.

For the serious film buff, this depressing month or so is a time to clean out cluttered cupboards, take up knitting (or perhaps cross-stitch) and learn how to bonsai.

Not me. I’ve developed buy viagra cheap | q buy cialis online | levitra buying a tactic, and it’s so simple I’m kicking myself I’d never thought of it before.

See all you do is exclusively see mainstream ( potentiall

y crappy) blockbuster stuff during December/January then save all the Oscar-nominated quality dramas etc. for the Dark March/April period. Because let’s face it – the studios themselves save all the best stuff up for Oscar Season, neglecting these other times of the year, so why shouldn’t we take it upon ourselves to bring a bit of balance back to the cinema calendar?

Now is the time to hit the cinemas to see any of the award-season goodies you might have missed.

You should probably get out there in the next week or so, as the blockbuster season seems to be starting early with films like Clash of the Titans out later in the week, meaning the quality dramas will be getting squeezed onto smaller and smaller screens until they drop out of cinemas entirely a few weeks from now…

In no particular order, the goods that are still out there Buy nortriptyline you should try to catch :

Precious
110 buy viagra in san diego mins, still playing at Dendy

I cheap diet pills online actually saw this one last night – a worthy Academy award winner of both the Screenplay Based On Published Material and buy clomid pct Best Supporting Actress categories, Precious is a fairly depressing yet hopeful tale of an uneducated, pregnant, incest/violence-battered 16yo African-American girl, calmly and quietly getting her life together her way in her own time. The main character is 100% believable (… a newcomer literally pulled from the streets to play the roll) and while the film goes to some dark places, it doesn’t go so dark (i.e. Von Triers films for instance) that you want to walk out, and overall is quite consistent (…though perhaps a little exaggeratedly “Oprah-Empowered-Woman” acomplia prices in terms of its sentimentality levels). Definitely worth a look.

The Hurt Locker
131 mins, still on screens everywhere

In case you hadn’t heard, this one pretty much wiped the floor clean at the Oscars, with most of the major categories including Best Picture. Whether it is indeed worth that particular accolade, I’m not so sure, but it is still a technically excellent, thoroughly engaging film which gives you a peek inside a different world inside a world, namely the US army guys who defuse improvised explosive devices in modern-day Iraq. The characters are all very believable with more depth than you’d expect to see in your average film set in a war-zone. The film basically follows the course of one mans tour of service, going from tense bomb scene to tense bomb scene, supported by a cast of random cameos and a lingering message once the film is over. I caught this one on a plane flight before the hype had ramped up about it and definitely found it a worthy 2 hours of my life spent…

The Blind Side
129 mins, Event cinemas has a few sessions left per day… will probably be gone after this week.

If you’d have asked me a couple of years ago if I’d ever consider Sandra Bullock would be an Oscar contender let alone an Oscar winner for a dramatic performance, I’d probably laugh, then frown, then slap you in the face for such blasphemy.

But sure enough, here she is in The Blind Side, playing a kind-hearted Mom who takes in the main character, a homeless kid with all the makings of a great football player, and helping him stay on track and realise his full potential. To be honest, this isn’t my kind of film, at all, but both the major performances are good enough to have garnished such high praise and attention, and for that, I’m at least quite curious… It’s been a long time since Speed after all…

Avatar 3d
162 mins, all the megaplexes still have it, cialis online buy plus Imax.

Yes, it’s still going. I’m actually in a fairly sombre, cynical post-Avatar mood about this film now, having seen the indelible mark it has made on mainstream cinema (…everything is 3d now… even crappy, inappropriate stuff that really doesn’t need to be, and the 3d is being done poorly! Aaarggh! *head explodes*), but I’ll still stand by my original comments and say : if you have not seen Avatar in 3d yet, then you really should while you still can.

Purely for the experience and to see exactly what the fuss is about all this 3d clap-trap.

There’s no way you could have avoided working out exactly what the story is by now even if you haven’t seen the film, so you’re in for no surprises there, but the effects themselves are so phenomenal, even if you don’t normally give a hoot buy cialis soft about effects, you’re going to be blown away.

A Single Man
100 mins, Dendy

I always love seeing Colin Firth in roles where he’s not playing Mr Darcy. Seriously, that guy was great as everyone’s favourite “bathes-while-clothed” Victorian heart-throb, but it’s nice to see that every time it looks like he’s typecast himself again, he pulls out a completely different role, such as in A Single Man. In this, he plays a gay man back in 1962, still grieving over the death of his partner 8 months earlier, whom the family of the deceased would not even let him attend the funeral of.

Oh, and yes, he’s planning on committing suicide, and the film follows him through his last day of cleaning up his affairs in preparation for his worldly departure. Surrounded by a cast of top notch actors (including Julianne Moore), it is Firths buy cialis prescription BAFTA-Award-winning performance which really pushes this one out from the crowd.
