a filmbuff request...

Oscar Best Picture nominees Juno, Atonement, There Will Be Blood, No Country For Old Men and Michael Clayton as far as I know hasn’t been shown here in the Philippines yet and I don’t know when are the movie houses owners are going to screen those movies.

Film buffs like me has to settle for pirated DvD copy to see those films. Ok, I know its not right to be doing that but I don’t know other way to watch the movies I want to see. I cant download illegaly from the Internet because I don’t want to do that and I don’t have a computer at home.

I settled for reading movie quotes in imdb.com. I love the lines from Juno (i so wanted to watch this film) (piece of trivia: do you know that the scriptwriter of Juno (Diablo Cody) is a former stripper?

I hope owners of movie houses will screen those films before the awards season or it would be great if they can screen them simultaneously to the United States.
