Roman Polanski's The Ghost Writer swept the 23rd European Film Awards, which were presented in a sadly inconspicuous ceremony held last night in Tallinn, Estonia.
The Ghost Writer was named Best European Film of the year, while Polanski and Ewan McGregor reaped kudos as Best Director and Best Actor, respectively. The film won 6 of the 7 awards it was nominated for.

When Jerzy Skolimowski presented his film Four Nights With Anna in the Directors' Fortnight section of the Cannes Film Festival in 2008 to general critical acclaim, 17 years had elapsed since the biggest fiasco in his career, the film adaptation of Gombrowicz's masterpiece Ferdydurke, which Truffaut famously called "un grand film malade".
Born in Lódz (Poland) in 1938, Skolimowski attended the prestigious film school of his hometown with the likes of Roman Polanski, whose first film A Knive in the Water he scripted.

Widely regarded as a second-rate director, mainly due to the lack of originality of his film material and the unmistakably glossy, B-movie varnish that impregnates his films, Brian De Palma could well be considered a true auteur, that is, a creator with a thematic and stylistic consistency in his work.
To say that Hitchcock is an influence to De Palma is, admittedly, an understatement, but it might be as simplistic to call him a sheer rip-off.

Widely regarded merely as Hitch's most famous English picture, this is actually one of his best.
