The
Oscars are just a few days away now so I thought I’d review one of the
nominations for Best Picture. Overlooked by this year’s BAFTAs, this
rank outsider isn’t expected to win the Oscar but shouldn’t be totally
overlooked. The film in question? The Fighter.
There is a bit of a theme going in the Best Picture category, most of them feature characters who display huge amounts of determination to achieve their goal. Heck one of them is even called True Grit, and in fairness The Fighter could easily have gone with the title ‘True Grit’ because main character Micky Ward displays so much of it Britain want to start using him on the roads in Winter.
