Lordy, lordy, the Oscars. I watched them because Mom watched them, but I'll admit I enjoyed them, to an extent.

She's fine now though, folks!

Also, I love Will Smith beyond all reason. Also I was REALLY glad that Tsotsi won best foreign film, and that the guy said 'Nkosi sikelel' iAfrika!' - that gave me a little thrill. I wanted either it or Paradise Now to win.
I agree about Crash, I didn't think it was that good of a film for what it was. Somehow it could've been better. But I think it was clever in that it did at least show that everyone is racist in some way. It wasn't anywhere as good as Brokeback Mountain, though. I think I want to marry Jake Gyllenhaal :(

Crash did show that everyone is racist in some way. Again, and again, and again, thuddingly, like being beaten with a rubber mallet for two and a half hours. Then again, subtlety has never been Paul Haggis' strong suit.
I want to marry Maggie Gyllenhaal. We can have a double wedding!
