Here's a look back at what I thought of Lars and the Real Girl. By any standard, I think it was the best picture of 2007. That only shows how out of touch I am, because the Academy didn't even nominate it (it got a Best Screenplay nod, but lost to Juno. Criminal).
This is what I thought after seeing the film:
...This was the set-up that scared me away from the movie. I thought it was going to be a dumb retread of Weekend at Bernie's or some such, and that I would have to sit through an hour and a half of lame sex gags.
I could never have been so wrong.
The film is incredibly good, and I think it probably should have been up for the Best Picture Oscar last year, and that it should have won.
