Ari Folman
Blu-Ray Review: Amazing ‘Waltz With Bashir’ a Must-See in HD
Submitted by BrianTT on June 25, 2009 - 7:00amCHICAGO – Ari Folman’s amazing “Waltz With Bashir” defies easy description. It may sound cliched but it is literally unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Folman’s amazing film should have won Best Foreign Language Film (it lost the Oscar to the inferior “Departures”) and should have also been nominated for Best Animated Film and Best Documentary. Don’t miss it.
