The 2011 Academy Awards Best Picture nominees were announced on January 25, 2011 and make up perhaps the best collection of films ever assembled. The list is even more impressive when you consider that this year the field of movies was expanded to 10. The following are the films nominated.
The King’s Speech.
Expertly directed with a perfect cast, The King’s Speech is probably the best movie of the year. Colin Firth gives a performance even more remarkable than last year’s A Single Man as he plays King George VI (Bertie), the mild mannered, reserved “spare” to the throne who suffers from a dreadful stammer. The movie begins with Bertie’s disastrous and almost incoherent 1925 speech at Wembley and ends with a still hesitant but nevertheless eloquent speech declaring war on Germany in 1939. In between, the movie chronicles the speech therapy that Bertie received from the Australian Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush.). This is an immensely enjoyable and engaging film on all emotional levels as a story of human beings, royal or not, dealing with and overcoming hardships.
The Social Network
Based on the book The Accidental Billionaires by Ben Mezrich, The Social Network follows Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg as he creates Facebook, the game-changing social network that has transformed how people interact on the Internet. A movie about the founding of Facebook could have been a very long, tedious film targeted to a very niche audience. But writer Aaron Sorkin fashioned a story that is witty, fast-paced, thrilling and never boring. Director David Fincher (Fight Club, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button) takes you on a frenetically paced ride into the world behind Facebook, with fascinating revelations and disclosures along the way. The Social Network is expert storytelling with beautiful cinematography and a brilliant lead performance by Jesse Eisenberg.
Black Swan
Black Swan is the story of Nina Sayars (Natalie Portman) a professional ballerina struggling to come of age when she fulfils her lifelong dream of landing the lead part of her company’s latest production, Swan Lake. The thrill of this accomplishment is tarnished by the fact that she is unable to deal with her overbearing mother (Barbara Hershey), questionably ethical director (Vincent Cassel), taking over the throne of the former star lead (Winona Ryder) and competing with free spirited newcomer (Mila Kunis). The performances in this film are not to be believed. Natalie Portman is amazing. Her performance was nerve wrecking, and she actually makes us feel the horror rising in her character as she discovers that she is slowly moving from the good to the evil side in an effort to hold onto everything she has ever worked for. Black Swan is a dark and surreal ride that takes us down some surprising turns and, like the ballerinas, keeps us constantly on our toes.
The Fighter
A candid and powerful portrayal of a dysfunctional family and how the fighter copes with these issues to achieve success. The movie starts rather unspectacularly but soon builds into a strong, compelling dramatic story about two incredibly strong characters, one of whom is sick, who stick with each other and help each other overcome their personal obstacles. The nature of the family dynamics and how they affect the main characters are presented believably. Instead of being corny or contrived, the story is presented in a straightforward manner that lays out the issues. Mark Wahlberg and Melissa Leo are outstanding, but this movie is a showcase for Christian Bale whose performance is remarkable bordering on incredible. Mr. Bale portrays a character who by any reasonable standard should be detested yet by the end of movie is worthy of admiration. The Fighter is a true knockout.
Inception
Dom Cobb (Leonardo Di Caprio) leads a highly skilled team, specializing in stealing secrets from people’s minds by entering their dreams. When they are hired by a mysterious businessman, Cobb finally has a shot at redemption, but not before achieving the near impossible. Rather than stealing an idea, they must do the complete opposite: Inception. Planting the seed of an idea. The plot of this movie is very pleasingly intricate with a twist-and-turn, keep-you-on-the-edge-of-your-seat type feel. Christopher Nolan has given us a smart film that is appealing to the eyes as well as the brain. The visuals are used in a way that makes things feel like an amazing dream. The story is interesting, and the actors all do a great job. Leonardo DiCaprio as usual is fantastic. Others like Michael Kane and Ellen Page also are great.
The Kids Are Alright
Stuffed with humor, power and insight, this film helps to remind us what a family is really all about. It’s also a cautionary tale: Passionate sex, by its self, does not automatically make for a good relationship. Strong feelings can overpower our better judgment. Being dishonest with those we love causes a lot of suffering, but it can be a forgivable offense. A long-term relationship is a big investment – emotionally, financially and spiritually and it should not be easily discarded when something substantial goes wrong. Same-sex couples can have the exact same problems opposite-sex couples do.
“The Kids Are All Right” proves Hollywood can make an enjoyable film about gay, lesbian, bi-sexual or transgendered people without it having to be violent, depressing or insulting. One of the great movies of 2010.
127 Hours
127 Hours is about Aron Ralston struggling to get out of a situation he was stuck in for 127 hours. Aron is an ordinary guy working as an engineer in Intel. One day he decides to get away for a weekend to Utah for mountaineering without letting anyone know about it. He packs up his bag and off he goes on his bike. Later, while mountain climbing, he is involved in an accident where a very large bolder gets dislodged and drops on his right forearm pinning him. This movie details Aron’s next 5 days alone as he tries to dislodge his arm from the boulder and save his life. Even though his eventual outcome is known world-wide, the gritty direction, gorgeous cinematography and flat-out brilliant performance by James Franco keep the viewer on the edge of their seat.
Toy Story 3
One of the year’s most engaging, laugh out loud funny and deeply moving movies. It unashamedly goes for the heartstrings in the final act as Andy leaves home to go to his freshman year at a US college. And that’s what this film is all about, the loss of childhood and what that means to a young man as he comes of age. Toy Story 3 is a true comedy classic full of slapstick, crazy chases and … as usual for a Pixar movie … a brilliant plot. The script sizzles and the acting (by the usual humans – you know them all by now) is universally outstanding
Randy Newman has made the franchise his own with his bittersweet and mostly beautiful music. Perhaps the highlight in this installment is Buzz Lightyear’s fantastic Spanish rendition of “You’ve got a friend.”
True Grit
True Grit is an outstanding movie that stands alongside other great westerns such as Unforgiven and Tombstone. A remake, this movie follows more closely the book than it does the John Wayne original film. The story is far richer, and the characters are given greater depth. Jeff Bridges does an excellent job filling the very big shoes of John Wayne in his famous portrayal of Rooster Cogburn. Matt Damon plays Texas Ranger LaBeouf, and is perfect. Barry Pepper plays Lucky Ned Pepper and even looks a little like Robert Duvall from the original movie. But the real star of the film, and the person around whom the story revolves is Mattie Ross, who is played with Oscar-worthy depth and skill by the unknown actress Hailee Steinfeld. Expect to see much more from her after this movie.
Winter’s Bone
Jennifer Lawrence delivers an unforgettable performance as Ree Dolly, a 17-year-old living in the Ozark who cares for her mentally disabled mother and two younger siblings. Ree’s rural existence is threatened by a legal framework which threatens to repossess her home and woodland if her criminal father Jessup fails to appear for a court date. Determined to track down her crystal-meth-producing dad in order to save her family, Ree is forced to request the assistance of cold hearted relatives who treat her with more than passing contempt. Adapting the story from Daniel Woodrell’s novel, co-writer/director Debra Granik takes full advantage of the harsh Missouri landscape in order to examine the cruel mindset of some of the meanest people you’ll ever encounter. Winter’s Bone is a film that turns over a rock of backwoods American reality and studies the beautiful and ugly things that crawl there.

Thats right Anne Hathaway wore 7 dresses to the Oscars 2011!! And for most that would mean the potential to choose 7 bad dresses but we think Anne Hathaway was the fashion star of the Oscars 2011 in all 7 of her dresses. Anne Hathaway stole the show in designs by Tom Ford which she closed the show in, Giorgio Armani Prive, Oscar De La Renta, Vivienne Westwood, Lanvin ( for her effortlessly chic tux) and Givenchy – basically Anne Hathaways outfit changes were a whos who of designer royalty for the Academy Awards 2011. Take a look at Anne Hathaway in all her Oscar glory and our other favourite Celebs from Michelle Williams in Chanel, Jennifer Lawrence in her specially made dress designed by Calvin Klein designer Francisco Costa to Black Swan beauty Mila Kunis in Elie Saab and more fashion from the Oscars 2011.
The traditional Anne Hathaway styling for the Oscars 2011 was just divine! It has been reported that stylist to the stars Rachel Zoe was reportedly paid a six figure sum to dress the co-host for this prestigious event – We think it was well worth it as Anne Hathaway looked amazing in all 7 of her Oscar dresses, 8 Oscar dresses including her red carpet look.

Its was elegant, sophisticated and refined – everything you would expect from the Academy Awards red carpet.
Valentino Marchesa Gucci
Florence Welch stunned in a nude Valentino gown that suited the fiery red headed singer perfectly. With its vintage style and nude colourings the understated classic dress was the perfect choice for the Oscars red carpet. Halle Berry wowed the critics in her Marchesa gown with tulle skirt, it was a great choice for the actress and made a nice change from the usual variations of LBD she tends to wear to red carpet events. Hilary Swank looked delectable in her Gucci gown complete with feathers – the colour looked great and complimented the actresses figure and skin tone. These three lovely ladies rocked the red carpet at the Academy Awards in nude palettes.

Scarlett Johansson was well err Scarlett for the Oscars red carpet she wore a super fitted Dolce and Gabanna dress in the prettiest shades of scarlett – the dress looked uber chic and her tousled shorter hair balanced out the straight lines of the dress. Sandra Bullock was a lady in red at the Academy Awards in a gorge Vera Wang gown – the colour is shocking and with the red lippy to boot Sandra Bullock looks a demure style siren. Jennifer Lawrence looked red hot in her red dress made specially for her by Calvin Klein designer Francisci Costa.

Michelle Williams was pixie pretty with her elfine crop beautifully complimented by her silver Chanel Couture gown – Heart her style!

This year at the movies we’ve seen wizards, vampires, demigods and one bad ass billionaire in an iron suit. At the end of the year, however, something as simple as toys and a little girl who fell down a rabbit hole took top honors at the box office in 2010.
Needless to say, the Walt Disney Company and CEO Robert Iger celebrated Mickey’s birthday right with huge profits and memorable films. Back in March, Johnny Depp put on the oversized hat of the Mad Hatter in what was more of a sequel to the original Alice in Wonderland. Helena Bonham Carter was outstanding as the Queen of Hearts and Disney used that tandem to score 6.1 million on opening weekend.
The mark easily broke the record held by “300″ for biggest opening weekend in the month of March. Alice in Wonderland stayed strong in its second week gaining .7 million — the fifth-largest second weekend. When it was all said and done, the new story of Alice earned the Walt Disney Company .02 billion.
Most great things come in pairs — a fact any guy knows if they’ve met a hot pair of twins.
Back in 1995, the world was introduced to a boy named Andy and his favorite toy — a cowboy named Woody. When this pair was introduced to the world, no one really know how they’d be received, yet here we are 15 years later, and we know exactly how they were — with open arms (and wallets).
Toy Story 3 debuted on the weekend of June 18 with thunderous anticipation from fans of all ages who wanted to see how the series would end. Disney and Pixar have speculated that this will be the last movie in the franchise, and boy did they go out with a bang.
The new chapter in the story of Woody and Buzz Lightyear gained 2 million on its first weekend topping just about every worldwide box-office opening. With a strong second week of million, Disney continued to see amazing revenues from another storied franchise from the company and at final tally, Toy Story 3 earned .06 billion at the box office worldwide.
Success at the box office is not a rare occurrence for Disney, but success of this magnitude is. With Alice and Wonderland and Toy Story 3, it marks the first time in movie history that two movies earned a total of at least billion.
Recently, Disney resurrected another franchise to tug at the memories of fans with Tron: Legacy, the sequel to the 1982 film starring Jeff Bridges. So far, Tron: Legacy has earned 9 million, which could make 2010 a very good year for Walt Disney Company when it’s all over in two days.

Golden Globe Nominations 2011
The Golden Globe nominations 2011 were announced this morning in Los Angeles, California which is where I happen to live! “The King’s Speech,” “The Fighter,” and “The Social Network” were among the leading nominations in the film category.
“The King’s Speech” received the top number of nominations of any movie with seven, followed directly by “The Fighter” and “The Social Network” both with six nominations each, and “Black Swan,” “Inception” and “The Kids Are All Right” were next with four Golden Globe nominations 2011 each.
The new Johnny Depp/Angelina Jolie movie (some would say farce) “The Tourist,” which was a disappointment at this weekend’s box office and was roasted by many critics, scored three surprising Golden Globe nominations 2011.
Anne Hathaway, James Franco and Annette Bening were among the nominees in the film acting categories.
The TV programs “Glee” received the most nominations of any TV show, with five Golden Globe nominations 2011.
Idris Elba, Judie Dench, and Jennifer Love Hewitt were also among the nominees in the TV categories.
Katie Holmes, Josh Duhamel and Blair Underwood helped announce the nominations this morning in sunny and warm Los Angeles, California – my hometown!
