Is there anyone who DOESN'T have an Oscar comment?
You can always tell when an actress really and truly doesn't think she's going to win: she isn't dressed for that stage. Tilda Swinton reminded me of Brenda Bethlin (?) who took it for My Left Foot: the outfit of someone who dressed her best (not a stylist's best) for the evening, happy to be nominated and obviously comfortable with the expectation that someone else is going to win.
Watching the Oscars always leaves me with a headache, and the sensation that my brain has been turned to chewing-gum by four hours in front of the Idiot Box. More TV (which is what I use to wind down at the end of the day) is out of the question, yet, it's too early really to go to bed. (Reading usually wakes me up, not puts me down).
Good work today.
