Nebraska, moving movie

Nebraska is a moving movie, Bruce Dern (78 years old) did not win the Oscar (Matthew McConaughey won it beating Leonardo DiCaprio who it was believed was to win it for once an all) but Bruce Dern could have done it perfectly as his portrayal in Nebraska of an alcoholic, old, loser man who  has  supposedly won a Million Dollar Prize is outstanding. In fact, Bruce Dern did win Cannes best actor prize. In order to get the prize or whatever it may be he starts a journey with relatives to Nebraska, throughout the trip he remembers his life and his family discover the reality behind this man as he comes back to his rural town. Nebraska is a great movie, the million dollar prize is only an excuse to the real history behind the main character. It is very interesting to see the rural surroundings of Nebraska because in rural areas everybody has a fame, a story from which is nearly impossible to escape

Movie director of Nebraska is Alexander Payne, the same filmmaker of Sideways, About Smichdt or The Descendants, he has a good taste when it comes to choose stories. With The Descendants he did win lots of recognition and the support of film goers, with Sideways he conquered critical acclaim but I consider Nebraska to be superior than the two aforementioned. Alexander Payne is from Nebraska by the way. Nebraska is a rural state that only has 2 million inhabitants.

Amongst secondary actors also shines wife of protagonist, Actress June Squibb (85 years old) not Bob Odenkirk so much, famous lawyer from Breaking Bad, while in the television series he realizes a great performance in Nebraska it is as if you were seeing the lawyer all over again but the problem here is his role is dissimilar to Breaking Bad. However, Bob Odenkirk talks as if he had Walter White in front of Him. Bob Odenkirk appears in Television Series Fargo and gives the same impression at least he is to star a television series based on his character from Breaking Bad, he will no have to change his way of acting. Nebraska did receive 6 Oscar Nominations, although none of them was garnered as Nebraska is a humble movie it does not have nothing to envy to 2013 winners (12 years of slavery, Gravity, Wolf of Wall Street, Dallas Buyers Club, The Great Gatsby or American Hustle). What is more, I strongly believe Bruce Dern rendered the best performance of 2013. Do share, rate or comment.
