Is 'Shame' the 'Black Swan' of 2011?

Short answer to that scintillating headline: No way! However, these two films have more in common than you might initially think -- and not just because they both come from the same studio (Fox Searchlight). Ahead, five reasons the Steve McQueen-directed sex-addiction drama 'Shame' is the 'Black Swan' of the 2011 gaggle. 1. Outstanding lead performances in not-so-outstanding movies As awards season dragged on at the end of 2010 and into this year, the buzz on 'Black Swan' went from instant classic to camp classic. The Darren Aronofsky-directed film -- specifically the cuckoo bananas third act -- was more arch and hysterical than most awards-bait, this despite a committed performance from Natalie Portman, who seemed to rise about the fray even while wallowing in 'Black Swan's' ridiculousness. 'Shame' isn't nearly as silly as 'Black Swan' -- quite the opposite, it's so ... damn ... serious -- but it's similarly flawed. As Brandon, the sex addicted NYer at 'Shame's' center, Michael Fassbender is utterly brilliant, but the film somewhat lets him down with a bit too much repetition and a not-as-shocking-as-it-wants-to-be third act. There is a lot to like in 'Shame,' but it's a tough movie to love. 2. Same-sex make-out sessions At least part of the reason 'Black Swan' grossed $329 million worldwide? That kiss between Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis! 'Shame' features a similarly bracing same-sex liplock (it's a spoiler, so you'll get no more than that), though considering the participants and the film's NC-17 rating, it's doubtful that will help the bottom line. 3. NY City subways fresh out of 'Warriors' Pet peeve time: NY City subways no longer look like they did in 'The Warriors,' plastered with graffiti. Which is what makes movies like 'Shame' and 'Black Swan' (and television shows like '2 Broke Girls') so infuriating. When Brandon is riding the subway, the window behind him is covered with scribble (see above). As someone who takes that train line almost every day (it's the N and R line), I can attest that it isn't nearly as messy. This isn't 1981, 'Shame'! Come on now. 4. Up and coming ingenues playing second-fiddle In 'Black Swan,' Mila Kunis never really gets a chance to shine with Portman devouring the spotlight; in 'Shame,' Carey Mulligan is dealt a similar hand, though she does have one show-stopping moment: a downcast version of "NY, NY" that breaks Brandon's heart, and probably yours too. 5. Addiction Obviously and all, but still: 'Shame' is all about sex addiction and how it can eat away at a person's soul. 'Black Swan' is about an addiction to perfection, one compounded by the fact that Portman's Nina is certifiably crazy. (Still, no one cuts their fingernails like Nina unless they have some deep-rooted perfectionist issues.) Perhaps she and Brandon would make a great couple -- if it wasn't for that pesky mortal wound at the end of 'Black Swan.'

Exactly what the National Board of Review Honours Mean for George Clooney and 'Hugo' in the Academy awards (Hint: Hardly Any)

On Tuesday, we organized the current trends of NY Film Circle Critic Honours resulting in Oscar gold -- which, with respect to the category, might be used somewhat like a barometer. Today, the nation's Board of Review honours were introduced. Prior to the NYFCC progress their date, the NBR honours were the unofficial kickoff to honours season -- but it is possible to correlation between your NBR honours as well as an eventual Oscar? If recent trends should be thought, the reply is, "most likely not." Overall, using the eight corresponding groups between your two organizations going back 5 years, the likelihood of among the those who win taking home an Oscar are 30 %. Place it by doing this: If C-3P0 just rattled and shook off this statistic, National Board of Review Best Actor champion George Clooney may want to bark back at him, "Never let me know the chances!Inch Oh, talking about Clooney, the NBR just loves him. Within the last 5 years, including this season, Clooney has won three occasions. Three! Obviously, he's yet to capture an Academy Award for the best Actor (he's won an Oscar for the best Supporting Actor, which, obviously, can also be the entire year the NBR snubbed Clooney in support of Mike Gyllenhaal). (NBR also loves Clint Eastwood, as evidenced through the inclusion from the significantly-criticized 'J. Edgar' around the NBR ten-best movies of the season list, in addition to Eastwood's win for the best Director last year for 'Invictus' and 'Letters to Iwo Jima's' Best Picture win in 2006.) Really, no acting those who win should get too looking forward to present day win. Again, during the last 5 years, the NBR only has predicted one win in each one of the four acting groups: Christian Bale (2010) and Penelope Cruz (2008) within the supporting groups and Forest Whitaker (2006) and Helen Mirren (2006) within the lead groups. Yes, the NBR Best Acting those who win haven't correlated by having an Oscar champion in 5 years. So, sorry, George Clooney. If there's one category the NBR appears to obtain right (a minimum of comparatively), it is best Modified Script. Three from the last five those who win go onto win the Oscar. With 'The Descendants' winning this season, this minor trend has a high probability of ongoing. And sure, the NBR's history for the best Director is not what anybody would call accurate (two from the last five) among individuals two Oscar those who win is Martin Scorsese (for 'The Departed'), who had been the somewhat surprising champion today for 'Hugo.' The outcomes in the last 5 years of NYFCC those who win and Oscars those who win are below (Those who win of both of them are in bold).
