Joe Onyero www.youtube.com/joeonyero Probably Ben Affleck and Co.’s biggest competition for the top prize is Steven Spielberg’s “Lincoln,” which tells the inspiring story of a landmark courtroom trial in which our 16th President fought for the rights of Tommy Lee Jones and bald men everywhere to live lives free of terrible wigs. Indeed Mr. Jones wins that fight, triumphantly removing his humiliating mop of boyish curls in the film’s climactic moment. Still, the movie ends on a downer, as a vengeful hair stylist guns down Abraham Lincoln, proving that intolerance of bald people everywhere was still alive and well.  The year’s most outrageous comedy comes in the form of Michael Haneke’s “Amour,” a genuine change of pace for the divisive, confrontational filmmaker and Twitter rabble-rouser. The movie tells the story of a couple of retired pranksters and all the crazy hijinks and adventures that prove that age is only a number, as long as you’re young at heart. We were charmed by their childlike humor as they chased their pet bird around their house, like a couple of old rascals! And who can forget the hilarious pillow gag the old man pulls off at the end? Hysterical! joe onyero a song writer In the documentaries, it's hard to go wrong predicting third-world humanitarian fights against disease. Add in some cute kids, and we have a probable winner in "Open Heart." "Open Heart" is a well-made look at a humanitarian hospital in Africa that's out to help kids who live in poverty and suffer from rheumatic heart disease. It follows several kids as they leaver their parents in Rwanda to go to a medical center in Sudan. We see both the emotional struggle of the kids and the bureaucratic difficulties the nonprofit hospital staff experiences from behind the scenes.  The sound editing category is a little trickier. The sound design in “Django Unchained” is detailed and precise, but isn’t showy enough to garner as many votes as it deserves. “Skyfall” and “Life of Pi” are the most likely contenders, with “Zero Dark Thirty” looking to swoop in with a consolation Oscar. “Skyfall” features some visceral, exciting action sound design, but “Life of Pi” has sound that’s both flashy and distinct, bombastic and quiet. It lets you hear the creak of a boat and the movement of the ocean, but also features virtuoso sound showcases like the shipwreck.  But back to Deakins. It speaks well of his abilities that he’s able to get consensus award-season attention for a James Bond movie, of all things. And indeed, his efforts are a huge part of lifting “Skyfall” from a solid thriller into a more substantive piece of cinematic joe onyero pop art. The sequence in the Shanghai high-rise is an instant classic for good reason. Just look at the way he utilizes the glares and shadows, the neons of the city shining through the wall-to-wall glass. It’s glorious work and I’d be happy to see it win. more info here
