(Yet another bangin' poster)
John Foote from In Contention was present for a screening of Precious at the ongoing Toronto International Film Festival, and he called it, simply, “a work of art,” praising Lee Daniels’ direction, calling it “a masterpiece,” and “this year’s best film;” he also lauded the perfomances, carrying on the chant calling for lead actressGabourey Sidibe to be nominated in the “Best Actress” category when awards season rolls around!

oh wow...such an important blog!
Aw thanks WC! That means everything! It's that virgo energy! nah'mean.
John who!? I mean if it was Roger Ebert who praised Precious as the best film of the year, I'd go along with it. If it was A.O. Scott, I'd be all over it. If it was even the overzealous Harry Knowles, my interest would be peaked. But John Foote? I won't hold my breath.
Still, The New York Times did hail lead actress Gabourey Sidibe's role as a breakthrough performance (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/13/movies/13durbin.html?pagewanted=all) so I'm keeping hope alive.

ET, well I like the poster. But the director is the same director that was heavily praised and the cast won oscars for monster's ball.
