So I cannot decided between Howard, Mendes, Fincher, and Boyle for Best Director. (I must admit that I have not seen The Reader-yet.)
I watched Revolutionary Road today and was impressed overall--considering my usual distaste for Winslet. However, Mendes made it feel like American Beauty in the 50's, but I have loved everything that he has put out.
Howard is great and Frost/Nixon was nearly flawless.
Fincher has never made a film that I hated; I only disliked Panic Room.
And Boyle--well he always entertains and Slumdog Millionaire is on par with the emotions expressed in Trainspotting.
Wow, I haven't posted in weeks.
EDIT-Winslet won two GG's tonight, and Alicia reminded me that I liked Little Children with Winslet so maybe I can look forward to seeing The Reader with a little more anticipation.
