The Best Film of 2009

March 14th, 2010

Speaking as an expert on the films of 2009 (I saw one film 11 times, and another film once), I can tell you with confidence that the absolute  BEST FILM of the year was not nominated for an Academy Award. This film, directed by Chris Weitz, based on a novel by Stephanie Meyer and adapted for the screen by Melissa Rosenberg, is NEW MOON (if you saw it as a bit torrent download, you may know it as LUNA NUEVA).

I’m serious, Man. It was a beautiful film. So was the first one, but bluer. Best actress? The subtle Kristen Stewart as Bella. By the way, few agree with me, but I am sure the author of the Twilight books, Stephanie Meyers, must have named this character after BELLA LUGOSI.
