The Chinese Year Of The Gay Cowboy

The nominees for the 2006 Oscar ceremonies were announced this morning. As expected Brokeback Mountain lead the pack in nominations and is the favorite to win best picture. I was impressed that Crash got a best picture nod, I feared it had come out to early in the year and was to popular with a general audience to get recognized in an increasingly elitest (sp) best picture category. Munich and Good Night and Good Luck are also worthy of best pic consideration, I have not seen the other two films nominated for the academy's most coveted award.
