Finally Watching 2008’s Best Picture
So thanks to Kiwibox I got to see the best picture of 2008, Slumdog Millionaire. I don’t know if it’s the best picture, but it definitely is a hellaciously entertaining movie with a timeless plot energized by its location and the obvious directing talents of one of my favorites, Danny Boyle. Check out my DVD review here.
On a sadder note, this is going to be my last review for Kiwibox. No, they didn’t fire me or anything. Effective today, they’re letting all the employees go and are essentially closing up shop. It’s a shame, especially considering the site had been around in one form or another for like 10 years, but these days nothing is safe.
If you need a great writer/editor, I know one that’s available (for once I’m not talking about me, but my Kiwibox slavedriver Chelsea). She was a pleasure to work with, didn’t edit my reviews too much, and has a ton of Hollywood contacts, so if you’ve got a struggling entertainment site, she’s your hook-up.
