Well done Reese!

So the Oscars have come and gone.

A few shout outs to the winners:

Reese Witherspoon- best actress for her portrayal of June Carter-Cash in Walk the line . Despite what some folks say, a great movie that chronicles a great life. And the music was hella cool also.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman- best actor for his portrayal of Truman Capote in Capote. A stalwart of independent cinema, he once had the honour of playing a character named Brent ( The Big Lebowski).

Tsotsi- best foreign. South Africa finally getting her dues. Fugard for a Nobel Prize?

George Clooney- best supporting actor (Syriana). There is life after ER.

I haven't seen Walk the Line, but I can guess how it goes:

Guy likes music. He faces a number of hardships, but eventually triumphs and makes his mark on the music stage with his best girl by his side.

Did I get it right?

Where have I seen that movie before?

Nope, you got it quite wrong. Maybe if you saw the movie before jumping to conclusions...

No thanks, I practice mental hygiene. I’ll watch Kung Fu Hustle or Plan 9 From Outer Space instead.

Mental hygiene isn't an excuse for closed mindedness. Don't go see the movie- your life is poorer for it.
