I gu...You're right, Baker, 2009 was slim pickins. <br /><br />I guess if I were Danny Boyle, I would've stuck that dance number after the credits, to give it some distance from the ending of the movie, which it comes so soon after. Or stick it on the DVD as a bonus scene. I think as is, it kind of undermines the story's climax. I know what they were trying to do, I'm just not sure how much I appreciated where it was placed. Oh, well. <br /><br />Perhaps at the end of FROST/NIXON, as soon as Frost one-ups Nixon, Frost and Nixon should've stood up, thrown down some cardboard, and breakdanced! Maybe every movie can use a post-climax dance number!Greenblatt the Great!https://www.blogger.com/profile/05833132744552978594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-148500349447339883.post-81242086123013327942009-04-14T18:55:00.000-07:002009-04-14T18:55:00.000-07:00I liked Slumdog and I did think it was Oscar worth...I liked Slumdog and I did think it was Oscar worthy but only because it was slim pickings this year... There just weren't many GREAT films in 09..<br /><br />but i agree that it wouldn't have been Oscar worthy if it had come out a year or two ago.<br /><br />And I liked the dance number. I though of it as an end-title sequence...James Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18283687555480506116noreply@blogger.com
