Brehs list some movies or performances you thought should have gotten more attention, awards etc.

I loved Zodiac and I honestly thought it should have gotten more attention. The story was great, the acting was great as well as the directing from Fincher.

Side Effects was another great movie. It just came and went with no real buzz.

[Jello Biafra]

The Color Purple

It was bad enough that Danny Glover and Adolph Ceaser weren't even nominated but the movie got noms in 11 categories and was shut out completely.
