Babel

Golden Globes; Oscars? Someone please explain why this two hour exercise in Kate Blanchette bleeding and screaming while Brad Pitt shouts into a telephone and various third world people act like fools and maniacs has gotten to be this year's hottest pick for so many awards. Throw in a Japanese sub-plot (perhaps the most compelling part of the film, but so loosely connected to the rest it seems an afterthought) and what I saw was an unimpressive mess. Tell me what I missed.
