Carey Mulligan's new film Brothers (the last one of her 3 movies including her critically acclaimed leading role in An Education, in theatrical releases this year) opens in U.S. theaters nationwide today! Carey has a small supporting role in this film as one of the army/military wives named Cassie Willis (and wow, I just noticed that her character's husband is played by The 4400 hottie, Patrick Flueger. See his photo in his imdb profile or click his name for the link. He and Carey make an interesting, good-looking pair. A lil' off-topic here, I liked his The 4400 show a lot, which reminded me of one of my other favorite superheroes series, Heroes...and have been watching it on its season 1-2 dvds, which I've recently added to my ever growing dvd collection, lol. Just got Season 3 dvd and have yet to see it. He was pretty good in that series as Shawn Farrell, one of the regular characters. Too bad, the show was canceled... without a proper ending too) who is married to Patrick Flueger's Private Joe Willis.
Speaking of Carey's character Cassie, who's married to Private Joe Willis (Flueger)...here's a slight spoilers, she mentioned him in the Brothers' clip below with Natalie Portman's character Grace Cahill, who's in love-triangle with her husband Capt. Sam Cahill (Maguire) and Tommy Cahill (Gyllenhaal).

Synopsis
BROTHERS tells the powerful story of two siblings, thirty-something Captain Sam Cahill (Tobey Maguire) and younger brother Tommy Cahill (Jake Gyllenhaal), who are polar opposites. A Marine about to embark on his fourth tour of duty, Sam is a steadfast family man married to his high school sweetheart, the aptly named Grace (Natalie Portman), with whom he has two young daughters.(Read more...)

Do you agree with their Top 11 Film of 2009 list or do you think there are movies missing in the list that you think are much better in those list? I agree with An Education (probably because it's the only film in the list I've seen, lol), but personally I think NBR snubbed these underrated and much better lil' films: Precious (esp. Mo'Nique for Best Supporting Actress, the best one I've seen this year, yet...NBR failed to recognized her and the film itself getting rave reviews both by critics and audiences, great box office gross, and other well-deserving accolades and recognition...yet NBR ignored this film) and The Young Victoria (Emily Blunt for Best Actress. I love Carey Mulligan and is happy for her being named the Best Actress, but acting-wise I heard Emily Blunt was amazing in The Young Victoria, which I'll be seeing very soon). Not too mention, these yet to be released films: Brothers, Nine (for Best Ensemble), and Sherlock Holmes were ignored or not mentioned in their top 11 list.
I finally saw An Education during Thanksgiving week. I've been waiting to see this since I first heard Carey Mulligan and Rosamund Pike were announced in the cast last year and I've been following this film as well since this was an independent film with a limited release last October 9th, it didn't expand nationwide till Friday of November 20th (about the same time Precious expanded, with blockbuster opening of the Twilight Saga: New Moon, and Sandra Bullock's The Blind Side, which I have yet to see). It's interesting that these movies including An Education were all showing at the same day in my local theater, lol.
girl just waiting to break free from her boring school life and conservative parents. That escape comes from a disarming older gentleman David (Peter Sarsgaard) who takes her out onto the city's club scene and introduces her to his good friend and business partner Danny (Dominic Cooper) and his unintentionally funny girlfriend Helen (Rosamund Pike). 
An Education was a fantastic film. The story was very well-written and beautifully crafted on-screen, interestingly enough because it was adapted from a true story from a memoir written by journalist Lynn Barber. 
It was very nice to see Carey in a leading role as she pretty much appeared mostly in small, supporting roles as she's still a newcomer in the acting biz. Her first film debut was a small role in the 2005 Oscar nominated film, Pride & Prejudice (one of my all-time favorite films), where 
she played the fourth sister Kitty Bennet with three older sisters portrayed by the lead Keira Knightley as Elizabeth Bennet, Rosamund Pike (who co-stars again with Carey in this film) as the oldest sister Jane, and Talulah Riley as Mary. It was the first film I've seen and noticed her in. I saw her next on another Jane Austen adaptation, the BBC's Northanger Abbey, where she 
portrayed another supporting role and a not-so-good-girl character. Then, on Public Enemies with Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, and Marion Cotillard, she had a very brief (like a few seconds-don't-blink-or-you'll miss her, lol) cameo appearance. And now in An Education, I loved Carey on this one as it was so nice to see her in mostly every scene from beginning to the end of this film. She's so pretty to look at on the big screen (reminds me a bit of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's), not too mention, she looked so cute and adorable with her dimples when she smiles (kinda like the adorable young Shirley Temple, but with no curly hair).
Carey is radiant as a suburban teenager in 1961 London who is curious and clever beyond her years but still rather innocent and impressionable. Although she's a very good student and a dutiful daughter 
on track to study at Oxford, she sits alone in her bedroom at night longing to be adult enough to live in Paris on her own, basking in the culture. Carey was impressive in this film, maintaining a beautifully believable balance of these contrasting forces, even as Jenny gets drawn from the sedate and boring life she knows into a glamorous new one. It was nice to see her carry this film on her own.
