They should have hired Pia for the Judi Dench role in Nine, I think.

This may be a little off topic, but could someone explain to me, why people were upset and are still upset that Marisa Tomei won for My Cousin Vinny. She won
like the same year I was born so I can't remember that far back.
BTW she was robbed last year for The Wrestler. |

The urban legend ever since has been that the, shall we say, eccentric presenter Jack Palance may have "announced" her inadvertently, when he was really just reading the last name on the list of nominees. Not so, insisted the academy, and we prefer to believe them. Mona Lisa Vito was a delight, and she can tune our carburetors anytime. Those ladies with non-Brooklyn accents simply divided the "Masterpiece Theatre" vote, and a grand American girl passed them in the homestretch. |

ah yes - the Crash win - over Brokeback Mountain - like that wasn't political - the lesser of two evils really.

Honestly, with the possible exception of Judy Davis in Husbands And Wives, are any of those other performances even memorable? I loves me some Vanessa Redgrave, but she's only in Howards End for like four minutes. |

"Crash" deserved it over BBM. The only reason people gave a shit about BBM was because it was a gay love story. Big whoop. And speaking of BBM, Heath
Ledger's win last year was bullshit too.

the whole concept of Award shows is bullshit.
I didn't see BBM but I did see Crash - and I really liked it, had to watch it more than once to get all the nuances of how all the characters lives intertwined. |

Heath was going to win it last yar with or without that tragic death of his. Besides other than maybe hoffman nobody was even close in terms of an actual
supporting performance

Dont get me wrong I really didnt give a shit which political movie didnt win it that year. It was just all the outrage over either one winning or losing amused me |

I remember watching Crash when it came out and really liking it, but I was like 14. Then I just rewatched it and found it laughably awful.
I still cry when the little girl gets "shot" though.
