So far this award season, my own personal front runner is Up in the Air.
WHY I LIKED IT: What's not to like? It has a stellar cast in George Clooney, Vera Farmiga, and Anna Kendrick-- emphasis on Anna Kendrick. Anna has the most fun manner of speech-- this quick witted understated humor which is usually reserved for British comedy. My favorite parts of the film included her.
Favorite Scene: The lead trio is at a party-- a technology convention party that they snuck into by taking uncollected name tags from the check-in table. After a few hours of hard partying with the techies, George looks at Vera and says, "Where is she?" Turns out that she (Anna) is actively participating in a rousing round of drunken karaoke.
Score- A
