The DVD Report #234
New This Week Not since Steel Magnolias more than twenty years ago has there been a film in which the women are all strong and the men, for the most part, all weak as in The Help. Maybe it’s a Southern thing as both films are set in the Deep South. Granted, the main thrust…

Precursor: 17th Broadcast Film Critics Nominations (2011)
The Broadcast Film Critics Association, who call themselves the “Critics’ Choice” despite only representing a fraction of working critics, have announced their annual Oscar predictions…I mean award nominations. As expected, The Artist, Hugo and The Help were among the most nominated with Drive doing much better than I would have expected from this group. Each…

Precursor: 16th San Diego Film Critics Society Nominations (2011)
Although the San Diego critics have been giving out awards for sixteen years now, their first nomination set was revealed only in 2010, which means we have no way of knowing their impact. The Artist continues its dominance and Drive is showing surprising resilience. In addition to the nominees and/or winners listed below, this year,…

Precursor: 3rd Indiana Film Critics (2011)
Not much can be said about this group whose two prior years have barely given us enough information to know much of anything except that their director and foreign film choices in the past haven’t been Oscar nominees. They are at least going to break their dismal record in Best Director this year, though Paul…

Trailer Watch: Titanic (3D re-release)
You’d be surprised how good it actually looks. I don’t remember how many times I saw it originally in the theater (enough to feel a bit fanboyish), but that just suggests that I’ll have no qualms about seeing it again in the theater. Titanic (3D re-release) Plot Summary: In time for the 100th anniversary of…

Precursor: 10th San Francisco Film Critics (2011)
The Tree of Life was the big winner with the San Francisco critics and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy managed to enter the game as did Vanessa Redgrave for Coriolanus. In addition to the nominees and/or winners listed below, this year, we’re giving you a quick background on each individual precursor including founding year, first awards…

Precursor: 5th Houston Film Critics Society Nominations (2011)
Another big group going for The Artist which picked up seven nominations, two more than its nearest competitor. This is also the first sighting of Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, which could be a fluke or the start of a trend (after all, it was screened late for critics). In addition to the nominees and/or…
