I have to say that I was a bit “eh” about the Oscars. I wasn’t alone as most people at my Oscars party simply either got drunk on wine or ate cookie cake. Nobody really wanted to pay much attention really because the movies this year were stirring and artistic but quite moody.
Was Juno the only nominee where somebody didn’t die? Wait, when was the last time a movie won an Oscar and didn’t have someone die in it? Geez people, couldn’t you have thrown “Juno” a bone here.
My favorite quote of the night though was from Marion Cotillard who said, in response to winning the best actress Oscar that she was,
“Overwhelmed with joy and sparkles and fireworks!”
How sweet is that? She was amazing and if you have the chance to see “La Vie En Rose” please go do it. She was so deserving of this Oscar.
Also, good guy and low-key actor Daniel Day Lewis won as well so in the end the Oscars may have been a bit boring and clip-heavy but at least we had some nice gracious winners…
thank you life! thank you love!
