For a second there, I thought Noomi Rapace was giving out an award. Seriously. I got pretty excited.

I think we finally have an explanation for Reese Witherspoon's career moves for the last few years.

Unfortunately, it has now shrunk and morphed into a salamander.

No one here thought A Separation had the best screenplay? It was such an emotionally taxing morality play. I liked Midnight in Paris but it was basically like 2 hours of Owen wilson walking around meeting famous people from the 1920s....nostalgic but a little slight in comparison

Seriously? He doesn't believe in the Oscars or that one film should compete against another. He never shows up (excluding the 2002 awards for a post-9/11 tribute to NYC).

Yes, but they are not going to give a "best foreign film" two awards.

Short films are the worst. Stop giving them Oscars.

I'm okay with it, but maybe before the telecast.

True! Probably because they knew Benigni would go nuts and start walking all over the seats.
