I've been living under a rock. I didn't see any of the movies up for best picture, although I think that I might see Brokeback Mountain later this week. (It surprises me that it even came to my town since there are so many homophobic rednecks here.)
I did see Memoirs of a Geisha twice. While a very pretty movie, it wasn't anywhere near as good as the book. I think it relied a little bit too heavily on the visual aspect and not on the actual substance of the movie.
So Crash wasn't good? I kept hearing rave reviews about it.
