Oscar Prep: Talib Kweli Picks Best Movies of 2012
Who needs the Oscars when you have Talib Kweli? When we chatted with the Black Star rapper about his all-time favorite film The Big Lebowski, we also asked which movies from last year left an impression on him. And while his two favorite flicks of 2012 might surprise you (who knew he was such a big Wes Anderson fan?) his explanations for loving these films are as eloquent as his lyrics. One of them was nominated for the Best Picture Oscar, but the other was sadly snubbed. Learn why Kweli loved them both below.
