Bad luck with cinemas. I've just come back from a holiday. Before leaving I didn't manage to get into the cinema at Haymarket to see "Slumdog Millionaire" - the movie hadn't started yet and people would be leaving 2.5 hours later but the staff apparently weren't working after 9 pm. How much are they paid that the cinema can't afford keeping one person 15 minutes longer to let in 6 paying customers?
Last night, after return I attempted to see "The Wrestler" at Chelsea. Another bad luck - the cinema suffered a power cut that very night.
In the meantime oscar nominations have been announced. Most films are yet to be released in the UK but so far my hopes are:
for "The Reader" to win the Best Picture award,
for "In Bruges" to win Original Screenplay or, failing that,
at least for "Happy-Go-Lucky" not to win anything,
for "Man On Wire" (Documentary Feature) to fail as well,
for "Hellboy" not to win Makeup.
As Bollywood usually has good music, "Slumdog Millionaire" could win Original Song.
