So I saw A Beautiful Mind this weekend and loved it. Nevertheless, despite the four golden globes it picked up tonight, I'm ecstatic that Moulin Rouge got three of its own.

In a year with a number of great movies (the aforementioned, Shrek, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Memento), and no absolute standouts, the Golden Globes are an important preview for the Oscars. It looks like A Beautiful Mind and Moulin Rouge are shoe-ins for the Best Picture nomination. Let's just hope M-R doesn't get stiffed in the other categories (I can't wait to see whether M-R or LotR:FotR gets best costumes).

Oh, and I couldn't possibly forget Amelie.

Basically, more than any other year, 2001 was the year of movies whose DVDs I want to buy in 2002. That is, if I don't already have them.
