That's 13 period drama films nominated for Oscars! Amazing!! I have seen 8 of them and enjoyed each and every one. I do wish I had read Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy before I saw the film however as it was a bit hard to follow. I haven't seen The Artist, My Week With Marilyn, Albert Nobbs, Tree of Life or W.E.. I plan to see all of those, with the possible exception of Tree of Life, unless one of my readers tells me it's definitely worth seeing. It just looks a bit weird to me. But even W.E. (which has been panned by critics) looks like it would be at least a good rental.
Great year for flicks! Enjoy the Oscars tonight everyone.
