All right people, here is my pick for the film to win the whole enchilada...or at least several bits of it.
The King's Speech is an amazing movie, brilliantly shot, equally well acted and compelling to watch despite the subject matter. Can't say that about too many British offerings from the Oscar palate i.e. The English Patient, Howard's End... do you really want me to go on?
It's the actors and the interaction between them that make this film work and Helena Bonham Carter, Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush are all deserving and will elevate this film to the ultimate prize- Best Picture.
Add to it cinematography, art direction, costume design etc. and you easily have the biggest winner of the night.
Remember all this when you're filling out your mock ballot Oscar night and again when I'm proved correct Monday morning.....You're welcome.
