It’s time for our 6th LION Award and again don’t expect the results to reflect the Oscar nods:
Come back tomorrow to see how the leading men stack up.
We’ve come to the end of this year’s awards and as proof of the excellent year that was 2013, we had a tie in our Top 10 films. As a result, I will now present the Top 11 Films of 2013, as voted on by members of the LAMB: …
We’re down to the two biggies! First up is Best Director… 5. Paul Greengrass (Captain Phillips) – 32 points 4. Spike Jonze (Her) – 62 points 3. Martin Scorsese (The Wolf of Wall Street) – 79 points 2. Steve McQueen (12 Years A Slave) – 111…
On the awards slate today is Best Actor. Here are the 5 men that the LAMB liked best: 5. Joaquin Phoenix (Her) – 48 points 4. Matthew McConaughey (Dallas Buyers Club) – 76 points 3. Tom Hanks (Captain Phillips) – 86 points 2. Leonardo DiCaprio (The Wolf…
No Meryl, no Michelle. Wow. Yay for Tilda!
And I’m surprised Rooney’s the winner but it’s surely awesome.
What the f*ck happened??? I don’t know about Mara… mimicking/interpreting a character really doesn’t impress me that much.
I haven’t seen the Kevin film but the Tilda Swinton pray is starting to build some hype.
Great list. I’m glad to see Kirsten Dunst is number 3 on here. Appearntly winning at Cannes means you don’t get a nomination anywhere else.
Ok, so far this is the only category where I dislike our list compared to the Oscar nominations.
@Joel: Wait, wait, wait. Interpreting a character doesn’t impress you? So, you are never impressed?
And Mara wasn’t mimicking Rapace. He Lisbeth is different in lots of ways.
I think, on the whole, I like our list better, I just don’t know about Mara as the top choice. She was one of my favorites of the year, but I don’t feel like she’s deserving of the top spot.
I like everyone on this list. Especially Mara, who I thought was great in her role. Surprising to see Binoche, though, but she really was great in Certified Copy.
LOVE the fact Mara won.
Haha, I think Joel’s worded it strangely. In acting you’re either giving your “interpretation” or “mimicking”.
these LION awards basically reflect the oscar nom snubs
