Today it was The King's Speech, which is on the surface very different from Winter's Bone. But both put good actors front and center and let them act. There's no hurried editing and hardly any action.
Playing a person with an impediment is a good bet to secure an Oscar, but this fact doesn't take anything away from Colin Firth's performance. It's great to see him sparring with Geoffrey Rush.
These two and Inception were very good, and there are still interesting Best Picture nominees I haven't seen (at least Black Swan and True Grit). 2010 seems to have been a good year.
