Not that it's going to be any indication, but the French Cesars just ended and Timbuktu won best movie and best director (French money so French movie, yes), along with 5 other Cesars (script, sound, cinematography, music, editing).
Also Mommy won best foreign movie as expected.
Kristen Stewart is best supporting actress for Assayas' Sils Maria. It so happens that she is actually the lead in the movie, but Binoche cannot run for less than Best Actress...
The "Cรฉsar d'Honneur" is for Sean Penn this year. A very, very, very long homage paid by Marion Cotillard. Awfully embarrassing moment. Penn, bored to death, speaks half as much if even that.
One movie you should check out if it reaches the States: Les Combattants by Thomas Cailley (best actress, best directorial debut, best Young Actor). Good movie indeed.

Goddammit I wasn't able to see any of the films this week, so I can't do the annual "will win/should win" thing. Too many nominated films still to see...
But anyway, I'll be happy if either Birdman or Boyhood win (which seems to be the case now).
Also if anyone's interested I made a 'which 2014 Oscar nominated character are you' buzzfeed quiz for another forum but I know there's a few here who would have seen enough of the nominees to find this fun so here it is:
Picture: Birdman
Director: Alejandro G. Iรฑรกrritu

Not bad ๐ Very happy with the winner last night. It was actually a great show.
I totally missed that Whiplash was nominated in sound mixing somehow ๐ I probably would of picked it. _________________ Doubles & Conch
