After launching the RopeofSilicon “The Contenders” section I have been hording links to new information and buzz for the multitude of films listed and have today updated the Documentary Page with a link to my Man on Wire review as well as updated the pages for Frost/Nixon, WALL•E and Australia.
A new review of Kathryn Bigelow’s The Hurt Locker gives me an idea it may need to be added to the list soon. And, if you haven’t done so yet, check out the trailer for Milk at the bottom of this article.
A couple of items not yet updated on “The Contenders” page include Derek Elley’s review of The Burning Plain at Variety that isn’t as flattering as those preceding it and if you haven’t checked it out yet the LA Times has feature on the films screening at the Toronto International Film Festival which begins today.
The last bit I will include here, since the reviews are all relatively new and I haven’t had a chance to read them all yet, are all the positive reactions to Rachel Getting Married starring Anne Hathaway. Reviews from Variety, Hollywood Reporter, the Times and Screen International all love the film and thanks to In Contention for the round-up.
