Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are dead

I saw today one of my favourite movies: Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead!
It's a weird film, half theatre half film, an absurdits drama, but it's funny funny funny.
The movie is based on the original Broadway production of "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" by Tom Stoppard, which opened on October 9, 1967 at the Alvin Theater, ran for 420 performances and won the 1968 Tony Award for Best Play.
It counts that the director wrote the play, and the dialogues are absolutely brilliant.
Gary Oldman and Tim Roth are a perfect match as you can see in the dialogue below ;)

Granny O'Grimm

Good news today, Granny O'Grimm was nominated for an Oscar :D
I first saw it at the Irish Film Festival in Bucharest in September and it totally killed me.
I'm not a fan of short animated films, but this one is quite special.
I hope it wins the Oscar, I know I'll keep my fingers crossed on March 7th, 2010.
It's the coolest Granny in the World, I'm just happy she isn't mine :)))

And last night watching german television I discovered the name of the singer: Milow :)
It's a great cover and it shows that Belgium has lots to offer besides chocolate...
