The San Diego Critics Speak and they like them some old men.





File this under "another movie I meant to see but didn't get around to it so that makes me supremely out of the cool movies that people tell you they've seen at dinner parties loop, like The Deejerling Unlimited and/or Juno." From Variety.com:

“No Country for Old Men” took top honors from the San Diego Film Critics Society on Tuesday. In addition to naming the Coen brothers movie the best film of 2007, the group awarded kudos to cinematographer Roger Deakins and the entire cast with the award for ensemble performance. Pic’s Tommy Lee Jones was also named supporting actor, a surprise win after co-star Javier Bardem nabbed the same award from multiple critics groups.
Also winning (and adding to my list) "There will be Blood" for director, adapted screenplay, actor (Daniel Day Lewis) and best score. In the actress categories, Julie Christie and Amy Ryan picked up actress and supporting actress for their work in “Away From Her” and “Gone Baby Gone,” respectively. “Juno” scribe Diablo Cody continued her hot streak with another win for original screenplay.
Ratatouille was named best animated film. I've seen that one. It was okay. (I shoulda been a movie critic).
