We managed to watch the last two hours of the Oscars last night. Even though I was preoccupied most of the time with work, I still found time to be annoyed. (As I usually am by such a thing. Curiosity usually gets the better of me, however.) I agree with this article, but I couldn't decide at the time which bothered me more, the host or the audience. I love movies, but sometimes abhor their actors. I guess it's just the extravagance of it all.

I was very surprised that "Crash" won for Best Picture. With all the fuss about it, I had suspected "Brokeback Mountain" to be a shoo-in.
