So I'm kind of an Oscars junky. Which is ironic considering I see, maybe, one movie a year in the theater. I just looked up this year's nominations, and got such a very very cool surprise: Beaufort, on whose soundtrack the ICSQ, my old quartet, played, is in the list for best Foreign. It's the first Israeli film since 1984 to be nominated. Apparently it's really good. I hope the nomination means it will be released in some more theaters in the states...
Here's the website for Beaufort (called Bufor in Hebraicized English. I could list a lot more words that get transformed in double, or reverse translation. Love it)
