Off topic, but speaking of movies, I saw City of God the other day. What a movie. If you haven't already, see this movie.
As for Fahrenheit, while interesting, I don't think it comes close to meriting best picture status. Bowling for Columbine was much better. 9/11 could have been much better but he got so heavy handed with that lady from Flint crying in Lafayette park. It just seemed so staged and low-brow.
