Kate Winslet won for the Reader!

The Oscars were meh this year. I’m not sure what the whole musical approach was about.. made it feel like it was the Tony’s not so much the Oscars. A few parts were funny though. The opening act was pretty good and Steve Martin and Tina Fey were funny. They’d make great hosts! I don’t think I liked the 5 previous best actor winners presenting the award… I feel like they made it more about the past than about the current movie… I’d rather see a scene from the movie with the best actor nominee in it!

So excited that Kate Winslet won for The Reader. I really liked that movie and I think she did an awesome job. Also really happy with Sean Penn’s win for Best Actor for Milk. I never heard the story of Harvey Milk before, it was really inspiring to watch.

Maybe next year I’ll try to be a seat filler. We’ll see…
