Academy awards 2010: Upset or new ground?

This year the highly prestigious film awards, the Academy Awards, are doing something they have never done in its entire 81 years of existence.

The Academy didn’t select the usual five nominees for best picture but an astounding 10. Does this mean that this year had a lot of highly acclaimed works of film art?

  • Up In the Air
  • District 9
  • Up
