Banksy 'Exit Through The Gift Shop' Makes Top 5
The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Science today announced their final nominations in each category for the upcoming Oscars awards show February 27th, 2011 in Los Angeles. I was extremely happy to see Banksy's documentary 'Exit Through The Gift Shop' made it to the top 5. :) I am also quite surprised 'Waiting For Superman' did not make the cut!!

Banksy Bombs 'Sundance Festival'
A graffiti stencil that looks exactly like the work of Banksy, arguably the most well-known graffiti artist in the world, has popped up in Park City, where the movie community is gathering now for the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. It’s all fueling rumors that the Spotlight Surprise screening (first showing Sunday night Jan. 24) is going to be a documentary on the mysterious London-based Banksy called 'Exit Through The Gift Shop'. Banksy’s actual identity remains a mystery. On his website, he says: “I am unable to comment on who may or may not be Banksy, but anyone described as being ‘good at drawing’ doesn’t sound like Banksy to me.” The Sundance site says: “While we can’t reveal the title until the Festival gets going, we can tell you that this World Premiere documentary will leave its own unique mark on the Festival. Whether you catch the first screening or the last, this is your chance to experience Sundance history in the making.” “And if you need still more convincing, heed the words of our Festival Director John Cooper who says, “Surprise is a good thing. Take a chance on this one. I confess, it’s one of my favorites this year.”
