Oscars 2008

The nominees for this year's Oscars were announced the other day, although the announcement was overshadowed by the death of Heath Ledger.

It certainly looks like Atonement will pick up at least one award. I still haven't seen it, but it's had fantastic reviews. I was hoping to see it on the plane back from LA, but I ended up sleeping instead!

Ratatouille, which was one of my favourite films of the last year, has a couple of nominations, but didn't get listed under the "main" film category, which is a pity.

So for the next few weeks I'm going to be trying to watch as many of the nominated films as possible... That should keep me out of trouble for a few days!
