Best Picture

Nominees

• An Education
  • Directed by Lone Scherfig
• Inglorious Basterds
  • Directed by Quentin Tarantino
• A Serious Man
  • Directed by Joel and Ethan Coen
• The Hurt Locker
  • Directed by Kathryn Bigelow

And the winner is...Inglorious Basterds. C'mon, any movie that combines Nazis, scalpings and a character named The Bear Jew has to win an award, right? This movie had it all: humor, action, drama and Tarantino's trademark crackling dialogue. He's still a one-of-a-kind filmmaker and is right on the mark with this film.

Quentin Tarantino again deliver's a genre-bending, idiosyncratic thrill ride.

A Quick Note on the Nominees: An Education, A Serious Man and The Hurt Locker are all great films, but there can only be one Ultimate Movie Champion.
