Writer's Block: And the Oscar Goes To
Milk.
I think 2008 was a pretty fulfilling year for me, movie-wise. I've never been the biggest movie buff but this past year I watched some good ones for the first time - The Godfather, Silence of the Lambs and Taxi Driver have probably been my favorites. But those came out years ago. Milk was a stunning little movie, it's gone right up there with some of my favorite movies ever, so for 2008 it's definitely that. I don't bother with the Oscars, but I do hope it wins whatever it's up for! What else even came out in 2008?
Besides, things win points with me simply for being about the gay community. Hence my love for Queer as Folk.
*Remembers she still has to read The Mayor of Castro Street*
