if this is oscar bait then i guess i'm a fish now because i've been CAUGHT and REELED the fuck IN
couldn't figure out why this middlebrow Oscar-bait was so good and gorgeous until i realized that Garth Davis was the dude who directed 4 episodes of TOP OF THE LAKE, and then it all clicked into place. this is straight down the center, but it's textured, understated (at least until the Sia song goes full-Weinstein in the end credits), and beautifully furnished (the Dustin O'Halloran / Hauschka score is a thing of wonder). i was moved. i suspect people who were adopted will be DESTROYED.
if this is what oscar bait looks like in 2016, it's shaping up to be a relatively painless awards season.
Dev Angel Patel deserves TWO oscars.... one for each of those magnificently broad shoulders.... and Sunny Pawar deserves all remaining oscars THE END
“We both felt the world had more than enough people in it already. Because to have a child - that’s no guarantee that’s going to make things better. But to take a child who’s suffering - like you boys were - and to give him a chance in the world. Well, then. Now there’s something.”
Inspirational one. A plenty parts of this movie resonates in my heart.
I'd been putting this one off because I'd read the article, already knew the story blah-blah-blah. How foolish of me to ignore the power of storytelling!
Watched this film at the cinema by accident... wasn’t able to get into the film I wanted to watch so I just thought, hey, this can’t be too bad. Turned out I was right, this is one of the most emotionally moving films I have watched. I guess going into the film with no expectations only made it better but still, I thoroughly enjoyed this film.👍😊
The spirit of Ray lives, if you try hard enough; if you seek it. The production felt honest throughout in the attempt to give the story justice.
Dev Patel is a high level free agent in need of someone to employ him as their muse; what an incredible talent. The amount of layers he plays into a character and story that many would consider shallow on paper is a testament to the thought and care he puts into his work.
The poster is bad.
"Oscar bait" > implying that the modern Academy Awards illicit any sign of credibility instead of being another annual marketing tool that runs too long
