Well last night was one of my favorite nights of the year...The Oscars! Love the Academy Awards! and last night was even more awesome to share it with my bestest GF's Mel, Lori, and especially my movieGF Heidi Ho (who dresses up as Juno, and looked just like her). I attempted a 'Michael Clayton' look and Andy a 'There will be Blood' man. We had some great Oscar food too: 'Sweeny Todd' meat pies, 'Eastern Promises' russian goulash, 'No Country for Old Men' texan chili, 'There Will be Blood' red velvet cupcakes and 'Juno' meatball sliders and Sunny Delight mimosas!
So even though I was cheering for 'Atonement' and secretly hoping for 'Juno', 'No Country for Old Men' won. Atleast it wasn't 'There will be blood', which neither Noel or I liked...though Daniel Day-Lewis was amazing...I hated the score! Thank God 'Atonement' won best score (think typewriter and violins) and 'Juno' best screenplay (think "they're not worried about me, what other shanagan's could I get into at this point")...both totally deserved. And that Marion Cotillard for 'La Vie en Rose'...WOW! Tres bien!

Right now I am watching the Tonight Show, and how 'bout that Eric Bana? From Ireland to Australia. G'day mate! Eric just won the Australian Academy Awards for best actor for the little Aussie movie called 'Romulus, My Father' (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462023/)
