    The Dude Abides as the Academy Awards snubs Farrah Fawcett in memoriam!!!!!!!!!

    Appalling, even if it was an oversight. Beyond appalling if it was indeed a deliberate omission.

  3. Anne says:

    Why did they leave actress Farrah Fawcett out of the Memoriam?
    That was a pretty cold decision to make.

    And yes, I’m glad Jeff Bridges won.

      Ditto Bea Arthur. Even though both Farrah Fawcett and Bea Arthur had big screen chops and experience, they were primarily known for their TV work and the academy perhaps decided to get snobby and not include them for this reason. Both were, for what it’s worth, featured in Oscar nominated films during their respective careers.
      Then there’s Michael Jackson — who was honored by The Oscars in memoriam — who is of course best known for his riveting film work.
      Congrats to Jeff Bridges! The Dude was first nominated for an Oscar almost 40 years ago. Talk about a long wait for the big prize.

    I didn’t even think about Farrah Fawcett! Why the hell would they have Brittany Murphy and not her?!
    As for the suits, I thought Tom Ford looked sublime. The suit was flawlessly tailored, I loved the lapels and the white flower was a nice touch. Some people do notice these things!

    The Dude, Starman, Fabulous Baker Boy – Jeff Bridges is one slyly handsome, incredibly sweet old hippie of a guy. Long overdue – very sad that his mom and dad didn’t live to see it. Glad they let him ramble on for as long as they did – it was awesome.
