I just watched this and all I can say is WOW! AMAZING film! I don't think I've been as wowed by a movie lie I was with this one ever. Edward Norton was amazing as always! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I hope it comes out on Blu soon!

P.S. I'm sorry if there was a thread for this movie already. I looked but I never get good results from the search engine.

who ever won the Oscar that year must have been amazing because Ed definitely deserved it.

"The curby" scene is one bad memorable thing.

ROBERTO BENIGNI for Life is Beautiful won. Tom Hanks in "Saving Private Ryan", Ian McKellen in "Gods and Monsters", Nick Nolte in "Affliction", Edward Norton in "American History X" were nominated.

Benigni in Life is Beautiful was great. Overall it was a stacked catagory. I would have leaned Ed Norton as well. I don't think I saw Affliction.

McKellen and Hanks were also deserving. Tough year.

Magic · 05-20-2008, 03:11 AM

This is one of my all time favorite films. I cannot wait to see this one released on blu.

Yes, the curb scene makes me cringe even thinking about it.

Let me ask you this: If those were your friends, then that means they're neo-nazi??? Or were they just pretending for the movie?

He did say the songs they did were written by someone associated with the script

And its a movie fellows, when does the role you play in a film all of sudden make it you? If so that Nicholos Cage fellow is one heck of a treasure hunter.

RedIsNotBlue · 05-20-2008, 10:49 AM

Yeah this is probably in my top 10 of most wanted Blu-ray's. Too bad its New Line though they seem to be dragging ass.

Beta Man · 05-20-2008, 12:41 PM

Go watch Romper Stomper....... That's another REALLY GOOD neo-Nazi-skin-head movie.

Best movie of 1998, in large part because of the best performance of this actor's career to date. The fact that he didn't win is just another mark against the Academy's record if you ask me.
