10:47 Oscar time: Now that's a speech.
There is nothing funny. but everything beautiful, real and proud, about director Gavin Hood's acceptance speech for "Tstosi," where he threw props to his co-nominees and cast and to Africa. If they had started the music on him, that would have been evil.
Oh, snap. It's 10:45 and we're already on Best Actor. Are we actually finishing this on time? Are the ice caps melting. AUGGH! It's a wolfffff!
The Oscar goes to...Philip Seymour Hoffman. And I gotta tell you, I have always had a crush on him, because he's so talented. Talent is sexy. (That's OK, Paul Walker. You're still hot.) He thanked his mama. Is he trying to make me cry? Well, it worked. Are you happy, now?

Posted by: Drama Diva at March 5, 2006 10:53 PMEverything's going as predicted. "Brokeback Mountain" is getting nada of any consequence. I have observed that the big ape has stomped on every category he's been in so far. Best actress goes to...Reese Witherspoon. Hey, she did her own singing, which separates her from the others. Gender-bender roles are passe, which brings the question: Whatever happened to the career of Jay Davidson? The best g-b role went to Linda Hunt for playing Billy Kwan.
This is boring. Wished that I had watched "Law & Order: Criminal Intent." Your blog is more entertaining. Larry McMurtry is one of this country's greatest Western writers. I hope the gay aspect of "Brokeback" doesn't contaminate future works. Yay! "Crash" won. I just purchased the DVD. It's still unwrapped.
I'll get back to you to close this thing out.
