I can see from this film why it was nominated for 6 Oscars. But naturally, since the film was really good, it didn't win any.
The story itself is so relevent to current events and modern society. It really spoke to our time.
The acting was wonderful too. Even though I'm completely head-over-heels in love with Vera Formiga, I found myself liking Anna Kendrick's performance more. She was beautiful and real. Her character was a unique and called-for addition to an already original movie.
Clooney's performance was nothing deserving an Oscar, but he did do a good job.
And I can't say enough about Vera Formiga. I LOVE that woman. I truly hope she gets cast in "The Walking Dead" TV show.
Factoid: Vera Formiga grew up in Jersey, but spoke only Ukrainian until she went to school.
