I thought the whole 'locked box' predictions schtick was an eye-roller. I'm with you on Julianna Margulies. I love her. I've been obsessively watching The Good Wife from beginning to present (even though I've seen them all before). Go figure. I also thought Jennifer Hudson looked stunning. And who knew Lady Gaga can actually sing like, you know, not an alien. She ain't no Julie Andrews but wow. Nicely done. I was ever-so-pleased BIRDMAN won best picture. I felt personally invested there. Overall though, the Oscars weren't really my thing this year. The sets. The sets were really interesting to me. And of course I thought Meryl's delivery of the In Memoriam segment was just as it should be: poingnent and very kind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030089012413435233.post-60006921232456136882015-02-23T18:11:42.531-08:002015-02-23T18:11:42.531-08:00Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! My husband and I ...Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! My husband and I went to see Still Alice this past weekend and I just told him tonight I am still mad about it. Furious, is more like it. <br />I didn't read the book, so I didn't know all the parts left out that would have helped the movie. I am appalled at all my FB friends who raved about Still Alice. I left thinking, "I gotta get a new class of friends, because I couldn't have hated Alex Baldwin more than I did in this film." Then I made it worse for myself because I read online reviews of the book and the movie where women were saying they felt SORRY for him! What???<br />He was a schmuck of the highest order. Why would anyone feel sorry for his weak ass? I was ranting about the movie long enough Rob asked, "Did I do something wrong? You seem very upset about a movie that isn't real." <br />Then I pulled up an article I found about men who leave their wives when they sick (more than double the percentage than women who leave sick husbands) and Rob said, "Oh. I get it. That is terrible." <br />I told him that was the right answer and I forgave him. He walked away confused but relieved. <br />I skipped the Oscar's completely. I just wasn't up for it this year. <br />Here is the article if you want to get mad at selfish, weak men: http://www.oprah.com/relationships/Why-Men-Leave-Sick-Wives-Facing-Illness-Alone-Couples-and-Cancer<br /><br />Thanks for letting me vent. I couldn't find the right place to do it online. I'm sorry if I hijacked your post, I am in no condition to judge my appropriateness on this topic. heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690910769000568136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030089012413435233.post-15266060270226907222015-02-23T15:31:48.259-08:002015-02-23T15:31:48.259-08:00Nicely analyzed, Ms. Plummer.

Only right now I feel like never watching them again.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435959688644291813noreply@blogger.com
