Matt vs. the Academy: Fade In...
http://mattvstheacademy.blogspot.com/2009/08/fade-in.html
Matt vs. the Academy. One man's ridiculous attempt to watch every film ever nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. Tuesday, August 18, 2009. After much deliberation on how to introduce this ridiculous project, I have come to the conclusion that said project is not merely ridiculous, but also, for the most part, arbitrary and irrelevant. For all intents and purposes, this project has very few intents. Purposes. In simple terms, I plan to sit down and watch (not in one sitting, obviously). So, why then? Perha...

http://mattvstheacademy.blogspot.com/2013/03/1942-mrs-miniver.html
Matt vs. the Academy. One man's ridiculous attempt to watch every film ever nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. Thursday, March 7, 2013. 1942 - Mrs. Miniver. Argo became only the fourth film to win the big prize without achieving a Best Director nomination (after Wings, Grand Hotel and Driving Miss Daisy). Daniel Day-Lewis is now only the sixth performer to have three Oscar statuettes, all three of his wins for lead roles (second only to Katharine Hepburn with four Best Actress awards). Christoph Waltz a...

Matt vs. the Academy. One man's ridiculous attempt to watch every film ever nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. Monday, March 23, 2015. 1996 - Secrets and Lies. After an early morning trip to the airport, Kat and Charlie are back home, with my in-laws in tow. As everyone attempts to recover from their jet lag - and at 13 months, Charlie doesn't know if it's day or night, the poor little guy - I managed to write up my thoughts on the last film of this year of review. Clearly showing his comedic chops are ...

http://mattvstheacademy.blogspot.com/2015/04/1943-madame-curie.html
Matt vs. the Academy. One man's ridiculous attempt to watch every film ever nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. Wednesday, April 1, 2015. 1943 - Madame Curie. Well, I mentioned the possibility of having to change the next year of review and, indeed, circumstances now require that I do just that. My plan to see The Apartment at the TCM Classic Film Festival. So, we'll come back to 1960 another time, but for now, we begin our review of the Academy's nominated films of 1943. Based on the book by Eve Curie).

Macy, Steve Buscemi, Harve Presnell, Peter Stormare, John Carroll Lynch. 2 wins, including Best Actress (McDormand) and Best Original Screenplay. The film's style is unmistakably Coen brothers, a curious blend of whimsy and intrigue, culminating in tha...
