Friday December 14, 2007 USA The Chinese-language "Lust, Caution" was nominated for Best Foreign Language film Friday by the 65th Golden Globes in Los Angeles. The award ceremony is slated for Jan. 13, 2008. Along with "Lust, Caution," four other films were also nominated as Best Foreign Language films. They are "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days" (Romania), "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" (France), "The Kite Runner" (U.S.), and "Persepolis" (France). Directed by Ang Lee, "Lust, Caution" was shot outside U.S. and partly produced by foreign entities, but was financed and distributed by U.S. companies. World War II film saga "Atonement" earned seven Golden Globe nominations, including one for best drama, to lead the pack of movies vying for a key Hollywood honor in the widely watched awards season. credits: cri.
OMG it's going to be such a difficult choice (for me) in terms of which film to pin for... Probably Persepolis, although The Diving Bell and the Butterfly and 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days were awesome films too... But Persepolis was quite an exceptional piece of cinema work that I have seen recently... I guess it's okay for Ang Lee as he actually won Golden Globes and Academy Awards in the past...
