The Hurt Locker, health insurance reform sent to The Last Station, Congress by The Messenger named Obama, A Serious Man, who got An Education that saddened his Crazy Heart because The Blind Side was provided by the Republican pit bullls.

Just saw Moon last night on DVD. It was excellent. Wish I saw it in the theater.
Hurt Locker, hands down, the best film of 2009.
What about Terry Gilliam's movie -- Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus?? Heath Ledger was terrific -- as was the entire movie!!
for anyone who likes to think of film as the sixth art form, Fantastic Mister Fox was the best film of the year, not simply for its visual presentation, but for the character development and plot as well.
A Serious Man: Rahm Emanuel's Story
Not at title but regarding news and pop culture, has not the news covering pop culture increased lately? And it the news' coverage of pop culture probably will increase as news room employees are reduced, as a pop culture story is an easy and popular news story.
Avatar: James Cameron's worst movie after Titanic
Avatar: The Bush and Cheney Years
An Education: What Sarah Palin Needs to run for Anything.
The Hurt Locker: Health Care in America (obvious)
District 9: How Gerrymandering is ruining America.
A Single Man: David Paterson, Next Week
The Last Station - The MTA Story (the road to nowhere)
An Education: How The Republicans Schooled Obama On How To Get Nothing Done.
