It’s all part of the Academy’s recruitment drive for the younger folks. Honestly, if I saw Seth or Jonas on my lawn, I’d call the cops…
Go Ellen Page!
And it’s Marion Cottilard at 2/1. Only one award has gone to the favorite so far.
Now I want to see that Julie Christie movie, but I didn’t catch the name. I love Laura Linney, too.
Like the Best Actress Award winner. So sweet and excited!
Rat was a good movie, but not Oscar quality, IMO. (not that animated features can’t or shouldn’t win–I’m not saying that)
It was fine, but it was not better than Persepolis. Grumble.
The Actress award came as a surprise. To me, anyway.
Mon dieu! I was NOT expecting that!
Should have seen her movie, I guess.
GO “FALLING SLOWLY”!
I was, but my stupid boss convinced me to put Julie Christie in the Office Pool.
That Wii joke seemed like something Ellen DeGeneres would have done last year.
OMG. I hope this song wins.
You have to admit, that would kick ass. Imagine a game of Madden on a screen that size.
The movie is Away From Her. The movie was directed by Sarah Polley. She also wrote the screenplay adapting it from work by Alice Munro, and was nominated for doing so.
Damn, I love this song [Falling Slowly]
Isn’t this the love theme from Transformers?
I like this song best of all of them. No idea what it’s from. I have seen almost none of these films–most of them are too violent for me. (I’m a wuss)
“There are angels in this city.” That was nice.
This song has to win.
ETA: From “Once.” Kind of a musical, where the actors wrote their own songs.
Who is the dude? He sounds a bit like Cat Stevens.
Wow, I was just thinking how horribly slow, maudlin and unentertaining this song is and I refresh the thread and see nothing but love for it. To each their own.

More Than Meets The Eye?
Huh. Did ** Once** steal a song from A Mighty Wind ?
God, I just love Jack Nicholson. I could listen to him talk all day! If he isn’t a classic old-Hollywood movie star, I don’t know what is.
