3 books
First place: Shared between Jane Eyre and The Jane Eyre affair. Both for their great female characters, the second book for its craziness and the dodo.
Runner up: The road – Dark, threatening atmosphere. A book to be read quickly, impossible to put aside, disgusting and thrilling all at once.
Looser: The glassbook of the dream eaters. Good critics, good start but overdetailed boredom half way through.
3 movies
First place: The Wrestler – best performance of the year, great sound track, a movie where everything just works.
Runner up: Star Trek – good special effects, nice story, a bit of fight, a bit of love. Far more than a fan movie.
Looser: Public enemy – Lack of patina. A good story styled to death.
