Departures

Gratifying to see that Departures probably deserved its Oscar 2009 for Best Film in a Foreign Language, in the opinion of Keswick, when most of us were surprised at it beating The Class, Waltz with Bashir and Revanche, but Departures was an excellent film and fully deserves both victories.
